{
	float t[max],k,h,tmax;
	int j,alpha,xmax,nstep,m;
	printf("xmax\n");scanf("%d",&xmax);
	printf("nstep\n");scanf("%d",&nstep);
	tmax=0.5;
	alpha=1;
	/*xmax=1;*/
	/*nstep=10;*/
	h=xmax/nstep;
	/*k=0.5*h*h/alpha;*/
	k=0.5*h*h/alpha;
	m=50;
	for (j=0;j<=m;j++)
	    { t[j]=j*k;    
    printf ("%d\t%1.3f\n",j,t[j]);
	    }
