Any way to solve a system of coupled differential equations in python?

For the numerical solution of ODEs with scipy, see scipy.integrate.solve_ivp, scipy.integrate.odeint or scipy.integrate.ode.

Some examples are given in the SciPy Cookbook (scroll down to the section on "Ordinary Differential Equations").

    I've been working with sympy and scipy, but can't find or figure out how to solve a system of coupled differential equations (non-linear, first-order).

    So is there any way to solve coupled differential equations?

    The equations are of the form:

    V11'(s) = -12*v12(s)**2
    v22'(s) = 12*v12(s)**2
    v12'(s) = 6*v11(s)*v12(s) - 6*v12(s)*v22(s) - 36*v12(s)
    

    with initial conditions for v11(s), v22(s), v12(s).

    The documentation seemed a bit difficult to understand, but the Cookbook you linked fitted just perfect for what I was trying to do, thank you!
