What are differential equations?
Differential equations are usually classified into two general categories: partial differential equations, which are also called partial derivatives, and ordinary differential equations.
Partial derivatives can be first-order, second-order, or higher order, and they’re what you get when you have a multivariable equation, but take the derivative of that equation with respect to just one variable.
Ordinary differential equations are equations that include a derivative, and that derivative can be of any order (first-order, second-order, or higher-order). Ordinary differential equations are more commonly classified into other specific types of differential equations, like linear differential equations, separable differential equations, and exact differential equations.
