How to find a PDE solver ( new matlab user )

Hi folks,

I am studying the Fokker-Planck equation

$$ \partial_t \rho(x,t) = \text{div}(f(x) \rho(x,t))+ \Delta \rho(x,t) $$

and want to find a PDE solve on matlab which will solve it in dimension 1 over the time interval , over the domain say .

I basically have no idea how to find an appropriate PDE solver for the problem I have at hand, because other than typing into google ``matlab Fokker-Planck equation solver" I don't know how to find such a thing.

Hi,

I understand that you are trying to solve a PDE using Matlab.

You can refer to the following documentation to get started with solving Partial Differential Equations using Matlab.

What about if the PDE has 2 spatial dimensions
