Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Consider a smooth function f(x) = sin(x) on the interval [0, Ο]. Compare the approximate integral using Gaussian quadrature (2-point) with the true integral. How does the accuracy compare?
π‘ Hint: Evaluate using specified nodes and compare to the exact integral value.
Question 2
Challenge yourself to derive a situation in which a rapidly oscillating function might mislead Gaussian quadrature measures. Describe the outcome.
π‘ Hint: Consider how rapid changes in a function affect your numerical integration technique.
