Justin -
I would define a function that takes an argument x for each of your analytical
expressions, e.g.,
```
def y01(x):
"""Initial positive ion charge density"""
return
pini*((special.gamma(k1+p1))/(special.gamma(k1)*special.gamma(p1))*((x/l)**(k1-1))*(1-(x/l))**(p1-1))/7.3572
def y02(x):
""""Initial negative ion charge density"""
return
nini*((special.gamma(k2+p2))/(special.gamma(k2)*special.gamma(p2))*((x/l)**(k2-1))*(1-(x/l))**(p2-1))/7.3572
def y03(x):
"""Initial potential"""
return a1*np.sin(b1*x+c1) + a2*np.sin(b2*x+c2)
```
Then you can invoke these functions with either the linspace to generate plots
like you have, or with the mesh positions, to set the initial conditions:
```
Pion.value = y01(mesh.x)
Nion.value = y02(mesh.x)
potential.value = y03(mesh.x)
```
