Simpson's Rule - Error Bound

Simpson's Rule - Error Bound. In this video, I find the number of intervals required when using Simpson's Rule to approximate a definite integral to a desired accuracy.

And the mysterious, floating, hairy arm has saved the day again. Thanks!

[patrickJMT]

@MARIOFREAK821 the most famous hairy left arm of the internet

[macabrebunny]

I love the USA.

[patrickJMT]

@macabrebunny i rather like it myself

[hbobbomb]

Why aren't you my maths teacher?!

[patrickJMT]

@hbobbomb i guess cause i do not teach : )

it's unfortunate that schools/universities glorify hard teachers while the good teachers that can break down initially complex-looking problems are reserved for community colleges and "level" students. the only thing that makes a math educator hard is his or her inability to communicate the concepts in an intuitive manner to students. your videos helped me supplement a ridiculously hard university calc course with class exam averages in the 30s. yet you should be the one that receives my tuition

patrick..no matter what anyone says..you are helping SO many people by taking your own time out to make these videos and present calculus in an understandable, clear, applicable way. everyone who has ever watched one of your videos should be donating money.

I wish my profs just put your vid on his lecture, which would be more effective.

[94suheyla]

thank u 4 dis vid. sooooooo much :) but can u plz tell me what did u write at the beginnig of the video?I can't read the words :(

[94suheyla]

thank u man :D I hope it will help me :))) thank u soooo much )))

...one ring to bound them all...

@pullan735 you take 4th root on both sides because you have n to the 4th power.

[NguyenEmpir3]

Thanks alot, very helpful video, more helpful than my professor at least.

I never understood why mathematician created error bounds for trapezoids and midpoints rule when this method is much more accurate.

thanks, I was trying to figure this out, but i didn't consider h= b-a/n so I wasn't able to get n LOL.

i love you
