Part A. 1. Download XPPAUT onto your computer, or identify a campus computer where you can use the software.

2. Review some of the initial documentation of XPPAUT so that you are familiar with the basic graphing capabilities.

3. Familiarize yourself with the necessary steps to run a program on XPP, which may depend on your operating system.

Part B. XPPAUT takes files of the extension .ode which can be created by writing in a text file and simply changing the extension upon saving as long as the file is plain and not rich text. Consider the following example codes (as .ode files).

Part C. 1. Consider the van der Pol equation (Example 7.1.2 and 7.5.1) and the glycolysis system (Example 7.3.2).

2. For each system, write an .ode file. Make sure to include all parameters and initial conditions needed. 3. Investigate the system for various initial conditions and parameter values. Use the details in the text as a guide to ensure that you are investigating the main parameter regimes and system behaviors discussed.

4. In your write-up, consider each system separately. Be sure to introduce the system and include the equations for the system. Include images of phase planes and time courses that provide evidence to the behaviors you found. All figures should include a caption detailing the values of the key parameters. Include copies of your .ode files as well.
