Engelbrecht, Johann; Fedotov, Igor; Fedotova, Tanya; Harding, Ansie – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2003
Quadrature methods for approximating the definite integral of a function f(t) over an interval [a,b] are in common use. Examples of such methods are the Newton-Cotes formulas (midpoint, trapezoidal and Simpson methods etc.) and the Gauss-Legendre quadrature rules, to name two types of quadrature. Error bounds for these approximations involve…
