Abstract
In this tutorial paper we present one of the simplest autonomous differential equations capable of generating chaotic behavior. Some of the fundamental routes to chaos and bifurcation phenomena are demonstrated with examples. A brief discussion of equilibrium points and their stability is given. For the convenience of the reader, a short computer program written in QuickBASIC is included to give the reader a possibility of quick hands-on experience with the generation of chaotic phenomena without using sophisticated numerical simulators. All the necessary parameter values and initial conditions are provided in a tabular form. Eigenvalue diagrams showing regions with particular eigenvalue patterns are given.
