Project 1 Numerical Computation Name ___________________

In this proejct you will test numerical computation using servlet on my site –IntegralMethod

Given function f(x)=exp(-4*x) [0,4] do the following

1. Compute the exact area of the region by the function (subsiitution method)

2. Numerical computation by left, right , middle, Riemannan methods by 20 steps and 200 steps

   and make comparison among the methods with the exact value (need to type exp(-4*x) in the servlet)

3. Sketch the area of the region.

4. If you are CS student, you may want also use the applet for doing the same computation (needs plug in of Java to your broswer

   since it is a swing)
