java - Riemann Integrator Sum Issue -


here code riemann integrator:

public class riemannintegrator {      public static void main (string [] args)     {         double lower = double.parsedouble(args[args.length -2]);         double higher = double.parsedouble(args[args.length -1]);          double[] coefficients = new double[args.length - 3];          if (args[0].equals("poly"))         {             (int = 1; < args.length - 2; i++)             {                 coefficients[i-1] = double.parsedouble(args[i]);             }              system.out.println(integral("poly", coefficients, lower, higher));         }     }      private static double integral(string s, double[] function, double lowbound, double highbound)     {          double area = 0; // area of rectangle         double sumofarea = 0; // sum of area of rectangles         double width = highbound - lowbound;               if (s.equals("poly"))             {                 (int = 1; <= ((highbound - lowbound) / width); i++) // represents # of rectangles                 {                     system.out.println("rectangles:" + i);                     (int j = 0; j < function.length; j++) // goes through coefficients                     {                            area = width * function[j] * math.pow ( (double)( (i * width + lowbound + (i -1.0) * width + highbound) / 2.0 ),function.length- 1- j);                           /*above code computes area of each rectangle */                          sumofarea += area;                     }                 }             }             width = width / 2.0;             system.out.println("polynomial, function (of length), lower boundary, higher boundary.");             function.tostring();             system.out.println("lower bound:" + lowbound + ", higher bound: " + highbound + ".");             system.out.println("the integral is:");             return sumofarea;     }    }

it works part, however, math wrong more not, , don't know went wrong. example, if want find sum of function of x^3+2x^2+3x, 2.416667 on calculator, , on wolfram alpha. but, in program, tells me 6. think may have number of rectangles, because tells me 1 rectangle. can help?

you need loop, along lines of

double width = highbound - lowbound; double epsilon = .001; // determines how accurate want solution be, closer 0 = more accurate double prevvalue = -1.0; double curvalue = -1.0; // initialize curvalue negative value greater magnitude epsilon - ensures while loop evaluates true on first pass {     ... // loop goes     prevvalue = curvalue;     curvalue = sumofarea;     width /= 2.0; } while(math.abs(prevvalue - curvalue) > epsilon);

the idea keep decreasing rectancles' width until sumofarea width = w more-or-less same (i.e. within epsilon) sumofarea width = 2w.

there faster + more accurate integration algorithms out there e.g. newton-cotes, i'm assuming don't have choice in matter.

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers

keyboard - Smiles and long press feature in Android -

i've created android keyboard. how add features inserting smilies, , using long keypresses display symbols? to create long-press behavior allows select several options pop-up menu, follow guide (specifically pop-up menu section): http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/menus.html smileys (also known emoticons) combination of keys, understood programs , parsed same way. have do, when clicks smiley face on keyboard, simulate pressing of key combination matching emoticon. example, when clicks smiley, should simulate key presses ':' , ')' :). here's list of emoticons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/list_of_emoticons
