### 21.1 Introduction to Differential Equations

This section describes the functions available in Maxima to obtain analytic solutions for some specific types of first and second-order equations. To obtain a numerical solution for a system of differential equations, see the additional package `dynamics`. For graphical representations in phase space, see the additional package `plotdf`.
