Lecture 24: Introduction to First-order Systems of ODEs

This MIT OpenCourseWare lecture introduces the fundamental concepts of first-order systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). You will learn how to set up and approach solving systems of first-order linear ODEs, often using matrix methods, and gain a geometric interpretation of these systems. This lecture is perfect for students with a school math background interested in programming, startups, psychology, and product design, as it provides a strong foundation for modeling and understanding dynamic systems.
