public class RiemannSums
extends GenericGraphApplet

The RiemannSums applet computes a Riemann sum for a given function and displays the sum and the rectangles that define the sum. In choosing the rectangles, it can use: Left endpoint rule, Midpoint rule, Right endpoint rule, Inscribed rectangles, Circumscribed rectangles, or the Trapezoid rule. (Yes, I know that the trapezoid rule is not exactly a Riemann sum.) The methods that use inscribed and circumscribed rectangles are shown in the menu as "~Inscribed" and "~Circumscribed". The "~" here means "approximate," and it's there since the minimum and maximum of a function on an interval is not always computed exactly.

You can also show the area between two curves by specifying a lower function. In addition, you can specify left and right limits.

Method Detail

setUpParameterDefaults

protected void setUpParameterDefaults()
Override to give a different default function

Overrides:
setUpParameterDefaults in class GenericGraphApplet

setUpCanvas

protected void setUpCanvas()
Override this to add more stuff to the canvas.

Overrides:
setUpCanvas in class GenericGraphApplet

setUpMainPanel

protected void setUpMainPanel()
Override this method to add the methodChoice menu and interval count inputs, if any, to the panel. (They were created in the setUpCanvas method.)

Overrides:
setUpMainPanel in class GenericGraphApplet

doLoadExample

protected void doLoadExample(java.lang.String example)
This method is called when the user loads an example from the example menu (if there is one). It overrides an empty method in GenericGraphApplet. For this applet, the example string should contain an expression that defines the function to be graphed. This can optionally be followed by a semicolon and a list of four or five numbers. The first four numbers give the x- and y- limits to be used for the example. The fifth number, if present, gives the interval count. After the numbers, there can be another semicolon and the name of the summation method to be used. Optionally, there can then be another semicolon followed by a definition of the lower function (which is only valid if you have also specified either UseLower or LowerFunction). Optionally again, there can be another semicolon followed by a pair of comma separated numbers representing the lower and upper integration limits (which is only valid if you have also specified either UseLimits or IntegrationLimits).

Overrides:
doLoadExample in class GenericGraphApplet
Parameters:
example - the function to be graphed
