Hello,
Given an ordinary differential equation of order n, H(x,y,y',y'',...)=0
Given the change of variables : x=x(u,v) and y=y(u,v)
How to calculate (hopefully recursively) y', y'', and so on as functions 
of say : u, v', v''

In other words how to translate automatically the differential equation 
in terms of the new variables ?
Thanks in advance
