`odin` implements a high-level language for describing and implementing ordinary differential equations in R. It provides a "domain specific language" (DSL) which _looks_ like R but is compiled directly to C (or transpiled to a different set of R equations). The actual solution of the differential equations is done with the deSolve package, giving access to the excellent Livermore solvers (`lsoda`, `lsode`, etc).

* The DSL is _declarative_ reflecting the mathematical nature of the equations (typically ODEs are simple mathematical relationships, so the order should not matter).
* It includes support for equations that involve vectors, matrices and higher dimensional arrays (up to 8!), including a high-level array indexing notation that removes the need for explicit looping.
