Hi,
new to matlab and struggling to grasp the language. My problem is I have been given the equation:

x" +ax' + bx = f(t)

solved using the ode45 function

first for f(t) = 0 and then when f(t)= 1

the point is to study the influence of the variables a and b, I'm sure i will be comfortable enough to evaluate these myself once I have the code.

Any and all help would be appreciated,
Thanks Shane
