/** This interface represents a first order differential equations set.

* integrators {@link FirstOrderIntegrator#integrate} method.
*
* A first order differential equations problem, as seen by an
* integrator is the time derivative dY/dt of a state
* vector Y, both being one dimensional arrays. From the
* integrator point of view, this derivative depends only on the
* current time t and on the state vector
* Y.
*
* For real problems, the derivative depends also on parameters
* that do not belong to the state vector (dynamical model constants
* for example). These constants are completely outside of the scope
* of this interface, the classes that implement it are allowed to
* handle them as they want.
