  17 In the __tutorial we have learned how we can use the generation functions `make_controlled` and `make_dense_output` to create controlled and dense output stepper from a simple stepper or an error stepper. The syntax of these two functions is very simple:
  18
  19 [generation_functions_syntax_auto]
  20
  21 The first two parameters are the absolute and the relative error tolerances and the third parameter is the stepper. Additionally, a second version exists where additionally a maximal step size is supplied which ensures the the step size is not increased above this value.
  22  In C++03 you can infer the type from the `result_of` mechanism:
  23
  24 [generation_functions_syntax_result_of]
  25
  26 To use your own steppers with the `make_controlled` or `make_dense_output` you need to specialize two class templates. Suppose your steppers are called `custom_stepper`, `custom_controller` and `custom_dense_output`. Then, the first class you need to specialize is `boost::numeric::get_controller`, a meta function returning the type of the controller:
  27
  28 [generation_functions_get_controller]
  29
  30 The second one is a factory class `boost::numeric::odeint::controller_factory` which constructs the controller from the tolerances and the stepper. In our dummy implementation this class is
  31
  32 [generation_functions_controller_factory]
  33
  34 This is all to use the `make_controlled` mechanism. Now you can use your controller via
  35
  36 [generation_functions_example_custom_controller]
  37
  38 For the dense_output_stepper everything works similar. Here you have to specialize `boost::numeric::odeint::get_dense_output` and `boost::numeric::odeint::dense_output_factory`. These two classes have the same syntax as their relatives `get_controller` and `controller_factory`.
  39
  40 All controllers and dense-output steppers in odeint can be used with these mechanisms. In the table below you will find, which steppers is constructed from `make_controlled` or `make_dense_output` if applied on a stepper from odeint:
