Description
|
|
|
•
|
The function rightsum computes a numerical approximation to an integral using rectangles. The height of each rectangle (box) is determined by the value of the function at the right side of each interval.
|
|
•
|
Four equal-sized intervals are used by default.
|
|
•
|
A graph of the approximation can be obtained by the Maple procedure rightbox.
|
|
•
|
The command with(student,rightsum) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
