[b]Numerical Quadrature[/b]
Example: [i]Approximate the arc length of a Bezier curve[/i]
A function explorer for selecting and arranging the interpolating polynomials. Parameters/Options:
-Interpolation order
-maximum spacing between points
-Use critical points from the curve (local minima/maxima, inflection points)
-Increase resolution near critical points
-compare Lagrangian and Hermitian polynomials
-examine the error at each subinterval.
