Re: [Help-gsl] questions about using GSL's ODE solver?

Hello,

About your question
> I want to solve the system of ODEs at 5, 7, 9, 11 seconds, and I
> only want solutions at these points. How to do that?

In GSL manual there is something i think directly addresses your problem:
http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/ODE-Example-programs.html
------------------------------------------------------------------------
To obtain the values at regular intervals, rather than the variable
spacings chosen by the control function, the main loop can be modified to
advance the solution from one point to the next. For example, the
following main loop prints the solution at the fixed points t = 0, 1, 2,
\dots, 100,

       for (i = 1; i <= 100; i++)
         {
           double ti = i * t1 / 100.0;

           while (t < ti)
             {
               gsl_odeiv_evolve_apply (e, c, s,
                                       &sys,
                                       &t, ti, &h,
                                       y);
             }

           printf ("%.5e %.5e %.5e\n", t, y[0], y[1]);
         }

Hope it helps :)
