I need to take my trapezoid rule code and adjust it keeping the same format to Simpson rule. I am just no sure how to get this done. I have tried this and keep getting errors. Here is my trapezoid code. Thank You so much! function s = myTrap(f,a,b,n) x = linspace(a,b,n+1); %for n trapezoids, use n+1 points h = (b-a)/n; s = (f(a)+f(b))/2; %initialize sum %trap sum for i = 2:n s = s + f(x(i)); end s = s*h; %multiply sum by h when f= @(x)sqrt(1+x^3) from 1-4 with 20 traps I get 12.875041 for simpson the same function 1-4 should output 12.871490

Hello,
I understand that you want to adjust your trapezoid rule code to implement Simpson's rule while keeping the same format. Please refer to the following code to achieve the same in MATLAB:
f = @(x) sqrt(1 + x^3);
a = 1;
b = 4;
n = 20;
result = mySimpson(f, a, b, n);
fprintf('Result: %.6f\n', result);
Result: 12.871451
function s = mySimpson(f, a, b, n)
if mod(n, 2) ~= 0
error('n must be even for Simpson''s rule');
end
x = linspace(a, b, n+1); % for n intervals, use n+1 points
h = (b - a) / n;
s = f(a) + f(b); % initialize sum with f(a) and f(b)
% Simpson's rule sum
for i = 2:2:n
s = s + 4 * f(x(i));
end
for i = 3:2:n-1
s = s + 2 * f(x(i));
end
s = s * (h / 3); % multiply sum by h/3
end
Hope this helps.
