Please don't be afraid to send me comments to improve the course or the text and to fix the many typos that will surely be in this first draft. They will be very appreciated.

I am extremely grateful to Anouk Pelzer, Robbert Scholtens and Albert \v{S}ilvans for their careful reading of the notes and their useful comments and corrections.

Clearly, once we know the initial conditions, the full evolution of the solution $x(t)$ is known, in agreement with Newton's principle of determinacy.
