**Trapezoidal Rule:** Approximates integrals by summing areas of trapezoids under the curve. Ex: `Area ≈ h/2 * (f(x0) + f(xn) + 2*sum(f(xi)))`. Pro-Tip: More segments (smaller 'h') = better accuracy!
Trapezoidal Rule: Estimates definite integrals by approximating the area under a curve with trapezoids. Ex: For one interval, Area ≈ h/2 * (f(a) + f(b)). Pro-Tip: Smaller step sizes (more trapezoids) = significantly better accuracy! #NumericalIntegration #Approximation #STEM #StudyNotes
Jitse Niesen@chrisrackauckas The excellent blog post above explains in detail why implicit ODE solvers are considered more robust than explicit ODE solvers (because they do better on linear problems) and why this is NOT true for all problems (roughly speaking, nonlinear problems can behave differently for linear problems; see the blog post for a better explanation which does not fit here).
An extreme example are exponential integrators, which have perfect stability for linear problems (because they use the analytical solution of linear ODEs). Nevertheless, exponential integrators still suffer from stability problems for nonlinear problems.

Khurram Wadee ✅Literally a couple of years ago I posted some #AnimatedGifs of the simplest #NumericalIntegration techniques, namely the #RectangleMethod, the #TrapeziumRule and #SimpsonsRule. In the comments, somebody suggested that I show the errors of each method as the number of strips increases. I said I’d try to do it when I got time. In principle it is a simple but worthwhile request but getting a bit of time and motivation to do it is another matter. Also, I needed a way to change labels dynamically...
