The key benefit to the golden True
section method is that we do not
have to calculate both x1 and x2 at
each iteration.
The parabolic interpolation method True
is usually faster than the golden
section method.
Adaptive Quadrature adjusts to use a True
smaller step size in areas where the
function changes rapidly, and a
larger step size where the function
changes slowly.
Romberg's method is a Newton- True
Cotes method.
The error for the "normal" accuracy False
versions of the forward, backward,
and centered finite difference
approximations is O(h).
Numerical differentiation is not False
particularly susceptible to errors in
data.
Simpson's 1/3 Rule approximates the Second
function by a ______ -order polynomial.
Romberg's method is NOT a False
Newton-Cotes method.
