Hyperbolic PDE with only one characteristic
That's a much more elegant method than my solution! Thank you for your input. Just to clarify, to get a characteristic for the original equation and get to the author's ##w=x##, one would differentiate both sides by ##y##, and define a new constant, correct? So it would appear, that using the...- psiofxandt
