Dormand-Prince pair in ode45, an RK ordinary differnential equation solver

[Marc Compere]

Octave users,

         I've recently modified ode45.m to use the Dormand-Prince coefficients 
in it's 
Runge-Kutta formulation.  ode45 is an ordinary differnetial equation (ODE) 
solver similar in functionality to Matlab's ode45, however it does not have 
all the features of their ode45.

        An RK method using the Dormand-Prince coefficients is computationally 
more 
efficient than Fehlberg's classic 4(5)-pair coefficients.  The new ode45.m 
along with ode23, ode78, rk2fixed,  rk4fixed, and rk8fixed can all be found 
at:
http://marc.me.utexas.edu/tmp/octave_ode_solvers/ode_v1.10.tar.gz

or individually in:
http://marc.me.utexas.edu/tmp/octave_ode_solvers/ode_v1.10/

or on the octave-sources list at:

Best regards,
Marc
