Ecuaciones diferenciales ordinarias con Maxima

in this work we present solutions of ordinary differencial equations by using the open source package maxima. the basic commands of solutions of this package are explained by a set of selected examples taken from trraditional courses in ordinary differential equations. here, some of the strengths and the weakenesses of maxima as a teaching tool in an ode's course exposed. we hope that this work can be used by the reader as a practical introduction to initiate the study of odes by using maxima, and in this way to obtener a benefit of the use of this open source computational package.
