Frobenius Method Exceptional case r1=r2

For the Frobenius Method for the exceptional case r1=r2... is the equation for the second solution


y[itex]_{2}[/itex]= y[itex]_{1}[/itex] ln (x) + x[itex]^{r_{1}+1}[/itex][itex]\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}b_{n}x^{n}[/itex]

or

y[itex]_{2}[/itex]= y[itex]_{1}[/itex] ln (x) + x[itex]^{r_{1}}[/itex][itex]\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}b_{n}x^{n}[/itex]

In a way both of them give the same exact answer however one begins with [itex]b_{0}[/itex]x (the first one that begins at n=0) ...and the other begins with [itex]b_{1}[/itex]x (the second one that begins at n=1)

Does it matter which one i use? Is one simpler than the other?

Disregard this post. I figured it out
