For any given function, TRAP(n)is always more accurate than LEFT(n).

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The accuracy of TRAP(n) (Trapezoidal Rule) versus LEFT(n) (Left Endpoint Rule) depends on the function being integrated and the interval over which the integration is performed. While TRAP(n) often provides a more accurate approximation for many functions because it approximates the area under a curve using trapezoids (which can better conform to the curve's shape compared to rectangles used in LEFT(n)), there are cases where LEFT(n) might be more accurate, especially for functions where the left endpoint of each subinterval is a better approximation.
