====== ODE ======

An ordinary differential equation (or ODE) is a relation that contains functions of only one independent variable, and one or more of its derivatives with respect to that variable.

An independent variable in Ecolego is represented by a [[Compartment|compartment]] block.

When running a simulation, a system of ODEs are set up and solved by a numerical solver.
