BIO 5910: Homework Assignment 3
Due on September 16, 2013
For this week, just one straightforward R problem. The program medication.R is up on the course web site.
a. Run the program and get nice graphs of the solution and
of the function itself. Change at least one thing about the
appearance of the graphs to make them even nicer.
b. Change the value of the power p until something happens.
Can you make sense of it? Which graph is more useful?
c. Pick one other parameter in the model and change it. Do
the results change in the way you’d expect?
d. How does this model differ from Homework 2, problem 2?
Would you expect that model to produce wild dynamics?
