1. Introduction. The equations of dynamics were put into a general formby Lagrange, who expressed them in terms of a set of generalized coordinatesand velocities. An alternative general form was later given by Hamilton, interms of coordinates and momenta. Let us consider the relative merits of thetwo forms.
