Solving a non-linear second order ODE with Matlab

I am brand new to Matlab, but I have to find an approximate numerical solution to the following differential equation:
d^2p/dr^2+dp/dr*1/r-2*exp(m(r))*sinh(p)=0 OR p''+p'*(1/r)-2*exp(m(r))*sinh(p)=0
I have separated it (I think correctly??) into two first order ODEs:
y0'=y1 y1'=2*exp(m(r))*sinh(y1)
Now I am confused on how to input this into Matlab. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hello,
ode45 must work for you. All you have to do is make a function handle, which carries your ode function that you have split into set of first order differential equations and then use ode45 solver in MATLAB to attain a solution.
Hope it helps!

Another pointer...
You have in fact not separated your DE correctly. You get y1' directly from your DE if you change dp/dr with y1.
