cmlabs.integrate.test_midpoint_error()[source]

Reach accuracy \(\epsilon\) error for midpoint rule.

\[\begin{split}\begin{gather} |I_n - I_{2n}| \leq \epsilon, \\ |I_{2n} - I_{4n}| \leq \epsilon, \\ \ldots \\ |I_{2^k n} - I_{2^{k+1} n}| \leq \epsilon, \\ \end{gather}\end{split}\]

where \(I_n\) is the integral of the function \(f(x)\) over the interval \([a, b]\) using the midpoint rule with \(n\) subintervals, and \(\epsilon\) is the desired accuracy.

Notes

\[\begin{split}\begin{gather} \int_a^b f(x) \, dx = \int_{0.5}^{1} x - \log_{10}(x + 2) \, dx \\ = \frac{1\ln{10} + 20\ln{5} - 24\ln{3} - 20\ln{2} + 4}{8\ln{10}} \\ \approx 0.1556335 \end{gather}\end{split}\]
