function batonode
%BATONODE  Simulate the motion of a thrown baton.
%   BATONODE solves a problem with a time- and state-dependent mass
%   matrix. This example is based on Example 4.3A of D.A. Wells, Theory and
%   Problems of Lagrangian Dynamics, McGraw-Hill, 1967.  Many problems are
%   conveniently formulated with a mass matrix.  A baton is modelled as two
%   particles of masses m1 and m2 rigidly fastened to a light rod of length
%   L.  Its motion is followed in the vertical x-y plane under the action of
%   gravity.  If the coordinates of the first particle are (X,Y) and the
%   angle the rod makes with the horizontal is theta, Lagrange's equations 
%   lead to a mass matrix that depends on the unknown theta.  The variables
%   y here are y(1)=X, y(2)=X', y(3)=Y, y(4)=Y', y(5)=theta, y(6)=theta'.
