Title: Lecture 5: Numerical Integration Trapezoidal and Simpson's Rule
Course: Numerical Analysis > Section: Module 3: Numerical Integration

In this section we are going to study two numerical methods of approximating definite integrals: The Trapezoidal Rule, and the Simpson’s Rule. Both these methods give an approximate result, a result that may contain both the round-off and the truncation error. However there are techniques of reducing these errors to tolerable levels.
