Write a code to compute the wavefunctions of the free particule in a box
1. Set a guest value for s
2. Perform an inward integration from a to xm, the matching point.
a

The matching point is necessary to get the right value of the energy
; in the case of free particle in box problem, a good way to choose
the matching point is to take a point where the value of the
wavefunctions is different from zero and close to the middle of the
box.
