To find the error of a 2-column data set using repeated Simpson's rule in Matlab, you can use the following code:
main.m772 chars20 lines
This code uses the composite Simpson's rule error formula, which gives an approximation of the error as:
main.m43 chars2 lines
where f(x)
is the function being integrated (in this case, y
), and h
is the step size used in the repeated Simpson's rule. The diff
function is used here to calculate the first derivative of y
, which is used to find the maximum value of f''(x)
over the interval [a, b]
.
