.eg.. simpson’s 1/3 rule, trapezodial rule, etc.
.
.
These rules are not 100% correct. There are some errors in them. Thats why the difference between the human interpration of a floating number and computer interpratation of a floating point number has a little differnce of 0.000001 / 2
.
.
This difference is called machine epsilon.
