The relation between local and global truncation errors is slightly different from in the simpler setting of one-step methods. For linear multistep methods, an additional concept called zero-stability is needed to explain the relation between local and global truncation errors.

Composite Simpson's 3/8 rule is even less accurate. Integration by Simpson's 1/3 rule can be represented as a weighted average with 2/3 of the value coming from integration by the trapezoidal rule with step h and 1/3 of the value coming from integration by the rectangle rule with step 2h. The accuracy is governed by the second (2h step) term.
The region of absolute stability for the backward Euler method is the complement in the complex plane of the disk with radius 1 centered at 1, depicted in the figure. [4] This includes the whole left half of the complex plane, making it suitable for the solution of stiff equations . [ 5 ]
[3] [4] Estimation of truncated regression models is usually done via parametric maximum likelihood method. More recently, various semi-parametric and non-parametric generalisation were proposed in the literature, e.g., based on the local least squares approach [5] or the local maximum likelihood approach, [6] which are kernel based methods.

The coefficients found by Fehlberg for Formula 2 (derivation with his parameter α 2 = 3/8) are given in the table below, using array indexing of base 1 instead of base 0 to be compatible with most computer languages:
Computing the square root of 2 (which is roughly 1.41421) is a well-posed problem. Many algorithms solve this problem by starting with an initial approximation x 0 to , for instance x 0 = 1.4, and then computing improved guesses x 1, x 2, etc. One such method is the famous Babylonian method, which is given by x k+1 = (x k + 2/x k)/2.
