Writing the C code, I've used the var name If (Integrated function, in my mind), and noticed the syntax highlighter highlights If as '''if'''! It should be case sensitive! --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 23:38, 16 December 2008 (UTC) |

==Copying Bad Code== |

It seems a lot of people copied the Java and Ada entries without actually thinking about the code or testing it. The right rectangle examples were leaving out the final rectangle; this was originally probably a copy/paste error from the left-rectangle, which does want to stop 1 h early. The mid rectangle routines were all just averaging the beginning and endpoint of each rectangle rather than sampling the middle. This is essentially recreating trapezium. In some cases, trapezium is also wrong, because while you count the endpoints only once, each interior function is used twice, and should be multiplied by 2. These particular entries were not doing that. Testing would have found most of these problems. |
