where, in the interval considered, r(x), q(x) and P(x) are functions of C", C and C, respectively, and the prime denotes differentiation with respect to x. Unless there is an explicit statement to the contrary, it will be assumed that all these functions are defined, and belong to the classes indicated, in the interval (0, oo). Simple examples show that the general equation (1.1) includes equations of radically different oscillatory behavior. For a more penetrating study of the solutions of (1.1) it is therefore necessary to introduce distinctions between certain sub-classes of equations (1.1) which reflect these basic differences. Taking our cue from the analogous second-order equation
