The Lorenz system is a set of three nonlinear ordinary differential equations originally studied by mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz in 1963. It is famous for its chaotic solutions, which exhibit sensitive dependence on initial conditions—an essential feature of chaotic systems, often referred to as the "butterfly effect." The Lorenz system is defined by the following equations: 1. \(\frac{dx}{dt} = \sigma (y - x)\) 2.
