Simpson's rule in numerical methods
1
$begingroup$
In the following code I have implemented composite Simpson's rule. However I should be getting approximately $291$ but for some reason I am getting something different. I implemented a few other methods to test it and the proper answer was $291$ So how do I fix my code?
from math import pi,cos,sin
def SimpsonMethod(f,a,b,n):
h = (b-a)/n
s = f(a)+f(b)
for i in range(1,n,2):
s+=4*f(a+i*h)
for i in range(2,n-1,2):
s+=2*f(a+h*h)
return s*h/3
print(SimpsonMethod(lambda x: x**2,5,10,100))
giving the output

Typo in the part of the function that calculates the even nodes, should be s+=2*f(a+i*h), this is after fixing:
from math import pi,cos,sin
def SimpsonMethod(f,a,b,n):
h = (b-a)/n
s = f(a)+f(b)
for i in range(1,n,2):
s+=4*f(a+i*h)
for i in range(2,n-1,2):
s+=2*f(a+i*h)
return s*h/3.
print(SimpsonMethod(lambda x: x**2,5,10,100))
and the result
