function L=linsht(F1,F2,a,b,alpha,beta,M)

%Input   - F1 and F2 are the systems of first-order equations 
%          representing the I.V.P.'s (9) and (10), respectively;
%          input as strings 'F1', 'F2'
%        - a and b are the endpoints of the interval
%        - alpha = x(a) and beta = x(b); the boundary conditions
%        - M is the number of steps
%Output  - L = [T' X]; where T' is the (M+1) x 1 vector of abscissas 
%          and X is the (M+1) x 1 vector of ordinates

%Solve the system F1

Za=[alpha,0];
[T,Z]=rks4(F1,a,b,Za,M);
U=Z(:,1);

%Solve the system F2

Za=[0,1];
[T,Z]=rks4(F2,a,b,Za,M);
V=Z(:,1);

%Calculate the solution to the boundary value problem

X=U+(beta-U(M+1))*V/V(M+1);
L=[T' X];
