Integration¶
See Numerical integration for an overview.
StateUpdaters¶
Typically you don’t need to worry about StateUpdater
objects
because they are automatically created from the differential
equations defining your model. TODO: more details about this.

LinearStateUpdater
(M, B=None, clock=None)¶ A linear model with dynamics dX/dt = M(X-B) or dX/dt = MX.
Initialised as:
LinearStateUpdater(M[,B[,clock]])
with arguments:
M
- Matrix defining the differential equation.
B
- Optional linear term in the differential equation.
clock
- Optional clock.
Computes an update matrix A=exp(M dt) for the linear system, and performs the update step.

LazyStateUpdater
(numstatevariables=1, clock=None)¶ A StateUpdater that does nothing.
Initialised as:
LazyStateUpdater([numstatevariables=1[,clock]])
with arguments:
numstatevariables
- The number of state variables to create.
clock
- An optional clock to determine when it updates, although the update function does nothing so...
