But probably not a very easy one; maybe even a very cumbersome one... ;-) Note however that questions like these should typically be addressed at the package author - which you can always quickly find out via > packageDescription("odesolve") Package: odesolve Version: 0.5-12 Date: 2004/10/25 Title: Solvers for Ordinary Differential Equations Author: R. Woodrow Setzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Maintainer: R. Woodrow Setzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Depends: R (>= 1.4.0) Description: This package provides an interface for the ODE solver lsoda. ODEs are expressed as R functions or as compiled code. .......................
