Two functions are included in archive:
EQ_2disc02b.m -Simulates 11-year cycle, equations are formulated close to famous disc dynamo by Rikitake.
EQ_2disc_comb0.m - Simulates both 11-year cycle and its envelop. Equations for the evolution of the envelope are close to disc dynamo by Hide.

Example of the function call is inserted inside .m file as a comment, just copy it to the command line.
