The first system is a distributed system, consisting of an infinitely thin string, supported at both ends; the dependent
variable, the vertical position of the string
is indexed continuously in both space and time.
The second system, a series of ``beads'' connected by massless string segments, constrained to move vertically, can
be thought of as a lumped system, perhaps an approximation to the continuous string.
For electrical systems, consider the difference between a lumped RLC network and a transmission line
The importance of lumped approximations to distributed systems will become obvious later, especially for
waveguide-based physical modeling, because it enables one to cut computational costs by solving ODEs at a few
points, rather than a full PDE (generally much more costly)
