I want to specifically create models for large biological systems involving partial differential equations(diffusion equation) as well as using ODE's etc.
I'm still and undergraduate student so this is ultimately my goal. Still learning all the basics.
I currently use python to generate and solve as well as display the basic dynamic models. However, this textbook I stumbled upon uses these graphical methods such as Simulink. I see Maple also has an alternative to this as well as Scilab.
For the field I want to go into, would you recommend going the way of suing these graphical simulators and why? Which would you recommend as well?
For mathematical modelling I use Mathematica. It has many built in ODE solvers and ways of graphically representing solutions.
