Hey, mathematical pedagoguges, are they still teaching that differential equations class in university that's a bunch of 18th and 19th century tricks to produce closed-form solutions to a narrow zoo of equations, or is everything more oriented towards describing dynamics now?
Or do you just grab a computer and punch stuff into it and get pretty graphs?
