Arithmetic is associative, right? Well, in the world of paper and pencil, where you can often do calculations exactly, that can be true. However, in the computing world, where real numbers can't always be represented exactly because of working with finite precision datatypes, it turns out that you can't depend on the arithmetic to behave the way you were taught in grade school.... read more >>

In our recent post, Mike Hosea and I talked about adjusting both the absolute and relative tolerances for getting more accurate results when calculating a double integral. Today we'd like to talk about choosing the method of integration as well as which order to choose for the first dimension (direction) of integration.... read more >>
