%PENDBVP2: MATLAB script M-file that uses bvp4c 
%to find the length l of a pendulum with 
%initial-boundary conditions theta(0)=pi/4, theta'(0)=0, theta(1)=0.
g=9.81; lguess=1; %In this case lguess is just an initial guess
rhs = @(t,y,l) [y(2);-(g/l)*sin(y(1))]; %Notice the l is added as a variable
bc = @(yleft,yright,l) [yleft(1)-pi/4;yright(1);yleft(2)];   
%l is added even though it does not explicitly appear, but parameters in the
%boundary conditions are valid as well.  Note that we now have three 
%boundary conditions.
initial_partition = linspace(0,1,25);
initial_solution = [pi/4;0];
solinit = bvpinit(initial_partition,initial_solution,lguess);
sol = bvp4c(rhs,bc,solinit)
fprintf('l = %5.4f\n',sol.parameters)
plot(sol.x,sol.y(1,:))
