/*! \page chapter1 Introduction
This document gives a brief tutorial on the CasADi software package and on the interfaces that comes with it. We aim at
introducing the most important capabilities of what CasADi can do. Our fundemental motivation is to provide open-source
software for people working with symbolic systems, differential equations and dynamic optimization.
Our discussion is mostly program code driven, meaning that
we do not even try to provide mathematical background knowledge, the authors assume that the reader has already a fair knowledge
of C++ programming, theory of differential equations and optimization theory. The goal of this document is to make the reader
familiar with
the syntax of CasADi and provide easily available building blocks to build dynamic optimization sofware.
After reading this tutorial the reader will be able to represent and derivate mathematical functions in a symbolic system with
code generation features, to
set up and solve ordinary differential equations with sensitivities.
