krypto problem

Using the numbers 3, 3, 8 and 8 once and only once, obtain the target number of 24. (use have to use 3 twice and 8 twice - 3 x 8 = 24 is not acceptable). You may use only addition, subtraction, multiplication and division (eg. no factorial). Hint: no addition in the equation.

Use Monte Carlo integration to estimate the value of the double integral, try to find....

Use Monte Carlo integration to estimate the value of the double integral (x^2+y^2)/(1+y^2) over the unit circle. Try to find a 95% confidence interval in which the true value lies? What is the exact value?

Mathematical Methods

(a) Describe how the weights for the order 4 closed Newton-Cotes quadrature formula could be found. Do NOT calculate the weights. (b) What are composite quadrature rules and why are they preferred to using higher order quadrature rules? (c) What are the main characteristics of a predictor-corrector method for solving an initia ...continues

Euler Method solved analytically

I have a differential equation with the initial condition given by: dy/dx=y^2/x+1, where y(0)= 1. (see attached file for more detail). As requested by my question, I have used the simple and improved euler methods to estimate y(1.2) with a step size of h=0.3 to 4 decimal places. I am struggling to solve the differential e ...continues

Numerical Representation & Errors - Write Effective Algorithm

See attachments for case study and complete questions. ...there exists a double series representation {see attachment}. This double series converges slowly, and it contains many small terms whose joint effect may be big. Your task is to write an effective algorithm to calculate the values of w(p,s) for any given {see attachme ...continues
