Non-classical logic — Non classical logics (and sometimes alternative logics) is the name given to formal systems which differ in a significant way from standard logical systems such as propositional and predicate logic. There are several ways in which this is done,… … Wikipedia
Variation of parameters — In mathematics, variation of parameters, also known as variation of constants, is a general method to solve inhomogeneous linear ordinary differential equations. It was developed by Joseph Louis Lagrange[citation needed]. For first order… … Wikipedia
Linear differential equation — In mathematics, a linear differential equation is a differential equation of the form: Ly = f ,where the differential operator L is a linear operator, y is the unknown function, and the right hand side fnof; is a given function (called the source … Wikipedia
Linear — The word linear comes from the Latin word linearis , which means created by lines .In advanced mathematics, a linear map or function f ( x ) is a function which satisfies the following two properties:* Additivity (also called the superposition… … Wikipedia
