im trying to write a program that gives the integral approximation of e(x^2) between 0 and 1 based on this integral formula:
Formula
i've done this code so far but it keeps giving the wrong answer (Other methods gives 1.46 as an answer, this one gives 1.006).
I think that maybe there is a problem with the two for cycles that does the Riemman sum, or that there is a problem in the way i've wrote the formula. I also tried to re-write the formula in other ways but i had no success
Any kind of help is appreciated.
import math
import numpy as np
def f(x):
y = np.exp(x**2)
return y
a = float(input("¿Cual es el limite inferior? \n"))
b = float(input("¿Cual es el limite superior? \n"))
n = int(input("¿Cual es el numero de intervalos? "))
x = np.zeros([n+1])
y = np.zeros([n])
z = np.zeros([n])
h = (b-a)/n
print (h)
x[0] = a
x[n] = b
suma1 = 0
suma2 = 0
for i in np.arange(1,n):
x[i] = x[i-1] + h
suma1 = suma1 + f(x[i])
alfa = (x[i]-x[i-1])/3
for i in np.arange(0,n):
y[i] = (x[i-1]+ alfa)
suma2 = suma2 + f(y[i])
z[i] = y[i] + alfa
int3 = ((b-a)/(8*n)) * (f(x[0])+f(x[n]) + (3*(suma2+f(z[i]))) + (2*(suma1)))
print (int3)
I'm not a math major but I remember helping a friend with this rule for something about waterplane area for ships.
Here's an implementation based on Wikipedia's description of the Simpson's 3/8 rule:
# The input parameters
a, b, n = 0, 1, 10
# Divide the interval into 3*n sub-intervals
# and hence 3*n+1 endpoints
x = np.linspace(a,b,3*n+1)
y = f(x)
# The weight for each points
w = [1,3,3,1]
result = 0
for i in range(0, 3*n, 3):
# Calculate the area, 4 points at a time
result += (x[i+3] - x[i]) / 8 * (y[i:i+4] * w).sum()
# result = 1.4626525814387632
You can do it using numpy.vectorize (Based on this wikipedia post):
a, b, n = 0, 1, 10**6
h = (b-a) / n
x = np.linspace(0,n,n+1)*h + a
fv = np.vectorize(f)
(
3*h/8 * (
f(x[0]) +
3 * fv(x[np.mod(np.arange(len(x)), 3) != 0]).sum() + #skip every 3rd index
2 * fv(x[::3]).sum() + #get every 3rd index
f(x[-1])
)
)
#Output: 1.462654874404461
If you use numpy's built-in functions (which I think is always possible), performance will improve considerably:
a, b, n = 0, 1, 10**6
x = np.exp(np.square(np.linspace(0,n,n+1)*h + a))
(
3*h/8 * (
x[0] +
3 * x[np.mod(np.arange(len(x)), 3) != 0].sum()+
2 * x[::3].sum() +
x[-1]
)
)
#Output: 1.462654874404461
I want to create a def that you provide a positive integer n and a number x, and it returns the n-th term of the following sequence:
x - x^3/3 + x^5/5 - x^7/7 + x^9/9 - x^11/11.....
where:
first term is: a1 = x
second term is : a2 = x - x^3/3
third term is: a3 = x - x^3/3 +x^5/5
etc
This is what i came up with, but it doesn't seem to return constistent results compared to calculating the values manually. Please, tell me if I'm missing something! Thank you very much!
def madh(n, x):
if n == 1:
return x
else:
result = (((-1)**n) * (x ** (2*n-1)) / (2*n - 1)) + madh((n - 1), x)
return result
Your mistake is in the sign of the element. For example, the second term is negative, but it is positive in your case ((-1) ** 2 = 1). So, the corrected version is:
def madh(n, x):
if n == 1:
return x
else:
# change n to (n+1) in the power of -1
result = (((-1)**(n+1)) * (x ** (2 * n - 1)) / (2 * n - 1)) + madh((n - 1), x)
return result
By the way, your function returns the sum of series up to n-th terms, not the n-th term of the series.
The nth term of the series is ((x^n)/n)*(-1^(n+1)). Simple function for that would be
def nth_num(n,x):
if n==1:
return x
return nth_num(n-1,x) + ((x**n)/n)*(-1**(n+1))
This question was asked in a challenge in HackerEarth:
Mark is solving an interesting question. He needs to find out number
of distinct ways such that
(i + 2*j+ k) % (x + y + 2*z) = 0, where 1 <= i,j,k,x,y,z <= N
Help him find it.
Constraints:
1<= T<= 10
1<=N<= 1000
Input Format:
First line contains T, the number of test cases. Each of the test case
contains a single integer,N in a separate line.
Output Format:
For each test case , output in a separate line, the number of distinct
ways.
Sample Input
2
1
2
Sample Output
1
15
Explanation
In the first case, the only possible way is i = j = k = x =y = z = 1
I am not getting any way how to solve this problem, I have tried one and I know it's not even close to the question.
import random
def CountWays (N):
# Write your code here
i = random.uniform(1,N)
j = random.uniform(1,N)
k = random.uniform(1,N)
x = random.uniform(1,N)
y = random.uniform(1,N)
z = random.uniform(1,N)
d = 0
for i in range(N):
if (i+2*j+k)%(x+y+2*z)==0:
d += 1
return d
T = int(input())
for _ in range(T):
N = int(input())
out_ = CountWays(N)
print (out_)
My Output
0
0
Instead it should give the output
1
15
The value of the numerator (num) can range from 4 to 4N. The value of the denominator (dom) can range from 4 to num. You can split your problem into two smaller problems: 1) How many values of the denominator is a given value of the numerator divisible by? 2) How many ways can a given denominator and numerator be constructed?
To answer 1) we can simply loop through all the possible values of the numerator, then loop over all the values of the denominator where numerator % denominator == 0. To answer 2) we can find all the partitions of the numerator and denominator that satisfies the equality and constraints. The number of ways to construct a given numerator and denominator will be the product of the number of partitions of each.

The scaling of the code right now is very poor due to the way the get_partitions and the get_number_of_valid_partitions functions interact.
EDIT
The following code is much faster. There's a small improvement to divisible_numbers, but the main speedup lies in get_number_of_valid_partitions not creating a needless amount of temporary lists as it has now been joined with get_partitions in a single function. Other big speedups comes from using numba. The code of get_number_of_valid_partitions is all but unreadable now, so I've added a much simpler but slightly slower version named get_number_of_valid_partitions_simple so you can understand what is going on in the complicated function.

The current issue with your code is that you've picked random numbers once, then calculate the same equation N times.
I assume you wanted to generate 1..N for each individual variable, which would require 6 nested loops from 1..N, for each variable
Now, that's the brute force solution, which probably fails on large N values, so as I commented, there's some trick to find the multiples of the right side of the modulo, then check if the left side portion is contained in that list. That would only require two triple nested lists, I think
(i + 2*j+ k) % (x + y + 2*z) = 0, where 1 <= i,j,k,x,y,z <= N
(2*j + i + k) is a multiple of (2*z + x + y)
N = 2
min(2*j + i + k) = 4
max(2*j + i + k) = 8
ways to make 4: 1 * 1 = 1
ways to make 5: 2 * 2 = 4
ways to make 6: 2 * 2 = 4
ways to make 7: 2 * 2 = 4
ways to make 8: 1 * 1 = 1
Total = 14
But 8 is a multiple of 4 so we add one more instance for a total of 15.

I am confused if this list will be out of range?
It will not be out of range because the elements of array are indexed from 0 to n-1, i.e in the above case 0 to 9. In the function inner the for loop goes from 1 to n, thus inner(n - i, p) is in range with values inner(9, p) ..... inner(0, p).
