[edit] Error?
sample saddle node equation has variables x1, x2. but figure on right has axes labeled x,y. is this an error?

Hi, I have been reading this page now for a while now and it seems to make no sence. To find the fixed points should you not put x= mew + x2> thus giving the fixed values as
1/2 +/- sqrt(1/4-mew).
Please could someone comment

- No, you are confusing discrete maps, x(n+1)=f(x(n)), with continuous differential equations, dx/dt=f(x). For differential equations, fixed points are dx/dt=0, so f(x)=0. A common confusion. Paul Matthews 15:23, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] concerning figure
Animated figure runs too fast to be observed. Can't it be made little slower. 195.150.224.236 13:30, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
