A sample Dirichlet or Neumann problem
\(
\begin{align*}
f''(x) &= 2x^2+5 \text{ on } (0, 1) & f''(x) &= 2x^2+5 \text{ on } (0, 1) \\
f(0) &= 1 & f'(0) &= 1 \\
f(1) &= 1 & f(1) &= 1 \\
f(x) &= \frac{1}{6} \left(x^4+15 x^2-16 x+6\right) & f(x) &= \frac{1}{6} \left(x^4+15 x^2+6 x-16\right)
\end{align*}
