14. Adams–Bashforth Method
Milne’s Predictor–Corrector Method is a numerical approach used to solve Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) when analytical solutions are not available. This method employs previous values of the dependent variable and its derivative to predict and refine future values, enhancing accuracy. It relies on the combination of explicit and implicit formulas and is particularly effective for problems requiring high precision over discrete intervals.

What we have learnt
- Milne’s Predictor–Corrector Method uses past values of y and f(x,y) for numerical solutions.
- The method involves two main steps: prediction using an explicit formula and correction using an implicit formula.
- High accuracy is achieved through the correction step, although it requires several initial values and can have limitations with stability in some cases.
