Biological Basis of the Provided Code

The provided code models a specific type of ion channel behavior in a neuron, focusing on the dynamics of a Hodgkin-Huxley type "h" channel, commonly referred to as an "H-channel" or "hyperpolarization-activated cation channel." This type of modeling is crucial for understanding the role of ion channels in neuronal excitability and signal transmission.
