Part 1 : Integration of Discrete Points

Create a function for numerical differentiation from a set of data. Read the instructions in the source code.

Exercise 1: Trapezoid (15 minutes)

Create Trapezoidal method for discrete data inputs. Upload the result in LMS.

I(f)=12i=0N1[f(xi)+f(xi+1)](xi+1xi)I(f) = \frac{1}{2}\sum\limits_{i = 0}^{N - 1} {\left[ {f\left( {{x_i}} \right) + f\left( {{x_{i + 1}}} \right)} \right]({x_{i + 1}} - {x_i})}
double trapz (double x[ ], double y[ ], int m);
  • In the report, screen capture the output window and paste your code

  • Use 1D array type with dataset length m.

  • intervals= N, # dataset=N+1=m, The ranges are x[0] to x[m-1]

Declare and define your functions in your header files, located in \include folder

  • function definitions: myNP.h

  • function declaration: myNP.cpp

Exercise 2: Simpson13 (15 minutes)

Create Simpson13 method for discrete data inputs. Upload the result in LMS.

  • In the report, screen capture the output window and paste your code

  • Use Simpson 13 method :

  • N even numbers, same intervals, from a(=x0) to b(=xN), h=(b-a)/N.

  • The interval should be h=(b-a)/N

  • Defined in myNM.cpp source file

double simpson13(double x[ ], double y[ ], int m);

Simpson 13 method :

I=h3[f(x0)+4i=1,3,5N1f(xi)+2k=2,4,6N2f(xk)+f(xN)]I = \frac{h}{3}[f({x_0}) + 4\sum\limits_{i = 1,3,5}^{N - 1} {f\left( {{x_i}} \right) + 2\sum\limits_{k = 2,4,6}^{N - 2} {f\left( {{x_k}} \right)} + } f({x_N})]

Part 2: Integration from a Function

Exercise 3 : (20min)

Create Simpson13() when a function is given as the input. Upload the result in LMS

double myFunc (const double x);  // in main.cpp
double integral(double func(const double x), double a, double b, int n);  // in myNM.h
  • In the report, screen capture the output window and paste your code

  • Use Simpson 13 method :

  • N even numbers, same intervals, from a(=x0) to b(=xN), h=(b-a)/N.

  • The interval should be h=(b-a)/N

  • Defined in myNM.cpp source file

Create the following function that calls myFunc() . The true answer is PI/2

I(f)=111x2dxI(f) = \int_{ - 1}^1 {\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} dx}
