Investigate the stability of:

(i) the equilibrium points of the equation

dydt=(y24)tan1(y)\frac{d y}{d t}=\left(y^{2}-4\right) \tan ^{-1}(y)

(ii) the constant solutions (un+1=un)\left(u_{n+1}=u_{n}\right) of the discrete equation

un+1=12un2(1+un)u_{n+1}=\frac{1}{2} u_{n}^{2}\left(1+u_{n}\right)
