Exercise 1:

Statement:

Given f(x) =ex , find f(1) using h=10-1, 10-2,,,, upto 10-10. Find out the error in
each case by comparing the calculated value with exact value.

M File:
close all;
clear all;
clc;
x=1;
for i=1:10
h=10^(-i);
fd=(exp(x+h)-exp(x))/h; //finding Derivetive
err=abs(exp(x)-fd); //error respect to exact value
disp(fd);
disp(err);
end

Output:
2.8588 // value of f(1)

0.1406 // error with respect to exact value

Exercise 2:

Statement:

Given f(x) =ex , find f(1) using h=10-1, 10-2 ,,,, up to 10-10 . Use equation (5).
Find out the error in each case by comparing the calculated value with exact
value.

M File:
close all;
clear all;
clc;
x=1;
for i=1:10
h=10^(-i);
fd=(exp(x+h)-exp(x-h))/(2*h);// finding Derivetive
err=abs(exp(x)-fd);// error respect to exact value
disp(fd);
disp(err);
end

Output:
2.7228 // value of f(1)

0.0045 // error with respect to exact value

Exercise 3:

Statement:

Given f(x) =sin (cos (1/x)) evaluate ( ) . Start with h =1 and reduce h to

1/10 of previous step in each step. If Dn+1 is the result in (n+1) th step and
Dn is the result in nth step then continue iteration until |Dn+1-Dn|>=|Dn-
Dn-1| or |Dn-Dn-1| <tolerance. Use equation (6) for finding D.
Function M File:
function [ y ] = fsc( x )
%UNTITLED Summary of this function goes here
% Detailed explanation goes here
y=sin(cos(1/x));

end

M File:
close all;
clear all;
clc;
x=(1/sqrt(2));
Dn=0;
Dnpi=0;
Dnmi=0;
h=1;
while abs(Dnpi-Dn)>=abs(Dn-Dnmi)
h=(h/10);
Dnpi=(-fsc(x+2*h)+8*fsc(x+h)-8*fsc(x-h)+fsc(x-2*h))/(12*h);
Dnmi=Dn;
Dn=Dnpi;
end
disp(Dnpi);

Output:
