Control of mesh and error for termination

[Scott Calabrese Barton]

Hi, I've used BVP4C in MATLAB and am testing BVP_SOLVER in python. 

I wonder if there is any way to control the mesh that BVP_SOLVER uses, and to set the error tolerance used to determine when convergence has been achieved?

Yup, I believe it goes into the solve() call: .com/jsalvatier/scikits.bvp_solver/blob/master/scikits/bvp_solver/solver.py

I think you want to set 'max_subintervals' and 'tolerance'.

Thanks, I couldn't find any documentation on that, but I did find all the options listed in scikit/bvp_solver/solver.py:

def solve(bvp_problem,

          solution_guess,

          initial_mesh = None,

          parameter_guess = None,

          max_subintervals = 300,

          singular_term = None,

          tolerance = 1.0e-6,

          method = 4,

          trace = 0,

          error_on_fail = True):
