Math 224-01: Differential Equations: Reading Homework 2.4

1. Introduction to Bifurcations : what are we examining about equilibrium solutions in this section?
   
   1. Bifurcations : what expectation might we have about changing equilibria? what ``odd'' behavior might we see?
      
      1. Point : what is bifurcation analysis?
         
      2. Point : what are the steps in bifurcation analysis?
         
   2. a side note : what are the steps in scaling time and population in example 2.4.1? why might we want to do this, anyway?
      
   3. Bifurcation Analysis : what do we do in the first part of our bifurcation analysis? in the second part?
      
      1. Point : what is a bifurcation diagram? what are the variables on the axes? why are some lines solid and some dotted?
