3.7.2 Pde()

The syntax for pde is
pde(u) [+-] op1(u)[*/]exp1 [+-] op2(u)[*/]exp2...=exp3

It defines a partial differential equation with non constant coefficients where op is one of the operator:

and where [*/] means either a * or a / and similarly for ±. Note that the expressions are necessarily AFTER the operator while in practice they are between the 2 differentiations for laplace...dyy . Thus laplace(u)*(x+y) means

.Similarly dxy(u)*f means
