#### setMaxEvaluations

    public void setMaxEvaluations(int maxEvaluations)

Specified by:
  `setMaxEvaluations` in interface `ODEIntegrator`

  maximal number of functions evaluations

                            NoBracketingException

Integrate the differential equations up to the given time.

This method solves an Initial Value Problem (IVP).

Since this method stores some internal state variables made available in its public interface during integration (`ODEIntegrator.getCurrentSignedStepsize()`), it is not thread-safe.

Specified by:
  `integrate` in interface `FirstOrderIntegrator`
Parameters:
  `equations` - differential equations to integrate
  `t0` - initial time
  `y0` - initial value of the state vector at t0
  `t` - target time for the integration (can be set to a value smaller than `t0` for backward integration)
  `y` - placeholder where to put the state vector at each successful step (and hence at the end of integration), can be the same object as y0
Returns:
  stop time, will be the same as target time if integration reached its target, but may be different if some `EventHandler` stops it at some point.
Throws:
  `DimensionMismatchException` - if arrays dimension do not match equations settings
  `NumberIsTooSmallException` - if integration step is too small
  `MaxCountExceededException` - if the number of functions evaluations is exceeded
  `NoBracketingException` - if the location of an event cannot be bracketed

#### integrate

    public abstract void integrate(ExpandableStatefulODE equations,
                 double t)
                            throws NumberIsTooSmallException,
                                   DimensionMismatchException,
                                   MaxCountExceededException,
                                   NoBracketingException

Integrate a set of differential equations up to the given time.

This method solves an Initial Value Problem (IVP).

The set of differential equations is composed of a main set, which can be extended by some sets of secondary equations. The set of equations must be already set up with initial time and partial states. At integration completion, the final time and partial states will be available in the same object.

Since this method stores some internal state variables made available in its public interface during integration (`getCurrentSignedStepsize()`), it is not thread-safe.

Parameters:
  `equations` - complete set of differential equations to integrate
  `t` - target time for the integration (can be set to a value smaller than `t0` for backward integration)
Throws:
  `NumberIsTooSmallException` - if integration step is too small
  `DimensionMismatchException` - if the dimension of the complete state does not match the complete equations sets dimension
  `MaxCountExceededException` - if the number of functions evaluations is exceeded
  `NoBracketingException` - if the location of an event cannot be bracketed

#### computeDerivatives

    public void computeDerivatives(double t,
                          double[] y,
                          double[] yDot)
                            throws MaxCountExceededException,
                                   DimensionMismatchException

Compute the derivatives and check the number of evaluations.

Parameters:
  `t` - current value of the independent time variable
  `y` - array containing the current value of the state vector
  `yDot` - placeholder array where to put the time derivative of the state vector
Throws:
  `MaxCountExceededException` - if the number of functions evaluations is exceeded
  `DimensionMismatchException` - if arrays dimensions do not match equations settings

#### setStateInitialized

    protected void setStateInitialized(boolean stateInitialized)

Set the stateInitialized flag.

This method must be called by integrators with the value `false` before they start integration, so a proper lazy initialization is done automatically on the first step.

Parameters:
  `stateInitialized` - new value for the flag
Since:
  2.2

#### acceptStep

    protected double acceptStep(AbstractStepInterpolator interpolator,
                    double[] y,

                    double tEnd)
                         throws MaxCountExceededException,
                                DimensionMismatchException,
                                NoBracketingException

Accept a step, triggering events and step handlers.

Parameters:
  `interpolator` - step interpolator
  `y` - state vector at step end time, must be reset if an event asks for resetting or if an events stops integration during the step
  `yDot` - placeholder array where to put the time derivative of the state vector
  `tEnd` - final integration time
Returns:
  time at end of step
Throws:
  `MaxCountExceededException` - if the interpolator throws one because the number of functions evaluations is exceeded
  `NoBracketingException` - if the location of an event cannot be bracketed
  `DimensionMismatchException` - if arrays dimensions do not match equations settings
Since:
  2.2

#### sanityChecks

    protected void sanityChecks(ExpandableStatefulODE equations,
                    double t)
                         throws NumberIsTooSmallException,
                                DimensionMismatchException

Check the integration span.
