Hi,

I'm attempting to learn differential equations on my own. Does anyone recommended a textbook that comes with/has a solution manual? I learn faster when I can see a problem worked out if I can't solve it.

Thanks.

Yes, there is a website called mathispower4u.com with a large collection of short videos on differential equations that should help you along. The videos present and solve a problem allowing you to pause while you try to do it.

I think you can find a solution manual for Dennis G Zill's book on internet.

But for beginners GF Simmons Differential Equations with Historical Notes or Tenenbaum Pollard is a very good choice.
Coddington Levinson is an advanced level book.

You can try to find the solution of individual problems on internet or alternatively post the problems in this forum.
 
Thank you
