Given the differential equation dy/dt = -2y with an initial condition y(0) = 1, use the two-step Adams-Bashforth method with a step size of 0.1 to estimate y(0.2).
💡 Hint: Start with the simplest method to get the intermediate result before applying the multistep technique.
Consider the stiff ordinary differential equation dy/dt = -y^2 + 3y. Solve it using the Adams-Moulton method with initial values and a given step size.
💡 Hint: Focus on constructing the system of equations for the implicit steps and remember to consider the previous values.
