The document explains Simpson's (1/3)rd and (3/8)th rules for numerical integration, providing formulas for approximating definite integrals over a small interval. The (1/3)rd rule uses quadratic interpolation, while the (3/8)th rule employs cubic interpolation for greater accuracy. Additionally, it briefly mentions the Newton-Raphson formula for calculating the square root of real numbers.

Simpson's (1/3)rd rule for numerical integration

We can get a quick approximation for definite


integrals when we divide a small interval [a, b] into
two parts. Therefore, after dividing the interval, we
get;

x0= a, x1= a + b, x2 = b

Hence, we can write the approximation as;

∫ab f(x) dx ≈ S2 = h/3[f(x0) + 4f(x1) + f(x2)]

S2 = h/3 [f(a) + 4 f((a+b)/2) + f(b)]

Where h = (b – a)/2

This is the Simpson’s ⅓ rule for integration.

Simpson’s (3/8)th rule for numerical integration


Another method of numerical integration is called
“Simpson’s 3/8 rule”. It is completely based on the cubic
interpolation rather than the quadratic interpolation.
∫ab f(x) dx = 3h/8 [(y0 + yn) + 3(y1 + y2 + y4 + y5 + …. + yn-1) +
2(y3 + y6 + y9 + ….. + yn-3)]
