Abstract
We introduced some linear homogeneous ordinary differential equations
which have both formal and finite distributional solutions at the same time, where the finite
solution is a partial sum of the formal one. In the nonhomogeneous case and sometimes in
the homogeneous case we found formal rational and rational solutions for such differential
equations and similarly the rational solution is a partial sum of the formal one.
