Finally the most sophisticated of the three is Simpson’s rule in which pairs of adjacent strips use a #quadratic #parabola to interpolate between the ordinates. This even better at convergence than the trapezium rule. I’ve shown a different function here because for the function shown above the difference between the approximation and the numerical #approximation is not discernible.
