Lecture 22. 



Numerical Quadrature.

Today we began our exploration of numerical integration, also known as numerical quadrature. The trapezoid and Simpson's methods are examples of a collection of rules known as Newton-Cotes formulas.

The lecture began with a presentation to motivate the subject of numerical quadrature. The presentation is attached in a 2 slide per page PDF file.
