\description{
  Third-order Adams-Bashford-Moulton predictor-corrector method.
}
\usage{
abm3pc(f, a, b, y0, n = 50, ...)
}
\arguments{
  \item{f}{function in the differential equation \eqn{y' = f(x, y)}.}
  \item{a, b}{endpoints of the interval.}
  \item{y0}{starting values at point \code{a}.}
  \item{n}{the number of steps from \code{a} to \code{b}.}
  \item{\ldots}{additional parameters to be passed to the function.}
}
\details{
  Combined Adams-Bashford and Adams-Moulton (or: multi-step) method of
  third order with corrections according to the predictor-corrector approach.
}
\value{
  List with components \code{x} for grid points between \code{a} and \code{b}
  and \code{y} a vector \code{y} the same length as \code{x}; additionally
  an error estimation \code{est.error} that should be looked at with caution.
