Why Numerical Integration is required? Compute the integral: $I=\int_{-1}^{1} e^x dx$ using composite trapezoidal rule for n = 4. [5]
Numerical integration (numerical quadrature) is required because: 1. No closed-form antiderivative exists for many functions such as $e^{-x^2}$ or $\frac{\sin x}{x}$. 2. The function is known only at discrete points (tabulated/experimental data), with no explicit formula available. 3. Analytical ...
