We have seen one predictor-corrector method already: the explicit trapezoid method, which uses Euler’s method to predict a first approximation of the solution, and then corrects this using an approximation of the implicit trapezoid method.

We will look at combining the \(s\)-step Adams-Bashforth and Adams-Moulton methods to achieive an two-stage, \(s\)-step method of same order of accuracy as the latter while being explicit — the explicit trapezoid method is this in the simplest case \(s=1\).
