This vignette describes the odin syntax and supported functions.

General structure

odin is a “Domain Specific Language”; a mini-language that solves a specific problem; in this case representing systems of difference or differential equations. It is syntactically R (i.e., it can be parsed with R’s parser) but it is not itself R. Only a subset of expressions and syntax are supported.

Every line in odin code must be an assignment or a relationship (there are some minor exceptions below).
