%----------------------------------------------------------------
% Usage:       [x,y,r] = bvp (alpha,beta,a,b,tol,m,q,g)
%
% Description: Use the finite difference method to solve the 
%              following boundary value problem where y' = dy/dx:
%
%              y'' = g(x,y,y')  ,  y(alpha) = a, y(beta) = b
%
% Inputs:      alpha = initial value of x
%              beta  = final value of x
%              a     = initial value of y,
%              b     = final value of y
%              tol   = upper bound on difference between estimates 
%              m     = number of interior solution points (m >= 1)
%              q     = maximum number of iterations (q >= 1)
%              g     = string containing name of a user-supplied 
%                      function which defines the second-order 
%                      ordinary differential equation to be solved.
%                      The form of g is:
%
%                      y2 = function g (x,y,y1)    
%
%                      When g is called it should return the value
%                      y2 = d2y/dx2 where y1 = dy/dx.
%                        
% Outputs:      x = (m+2) by 1 vector containing independent 
%                   variables uniformly distributed over [alpha,beta]
%               y = (m+2) by 1 vector containing solution points
%               r = number of iterations performed. If r < q, then
%                   the following termination criterion was 
%                   satisfied where Dy is the change in y between
%                   successive iterations:
%
%                   ||Dy|| < tol
