    Hi Jaundre Venter<br>
    <br>
    your code runs just fine<br>
    <br>
    you just ploted y(9) and y(8) instead of y(9,:) and y(8,:) !<br>
    <br>
    it happens that when M is a matrix, say a 3x4 matrix, things like
    M($), M(1), M(7) or M([1 3 5 9]) are legal scilab statements, so you
    don't have any error message.<br>
    see the documentation: help extraction<br>
    <br>
    <b>scilab team</b>, maybe you could put an option for displaying
    warnings when tables are accessed with less arguments than their
    dimensions, what do you think?<br>

                                make sure you understand that using dx_6

                                      HION and CO it actually refers to

                                      ODE's that is having a effect on

                                      refer to dx(1) for example in a
                                      other ODE it means that SCILAb
