hwo to write a function similar to the Riemann sum to approximate the area under a curve? it must give the following output, the approximated quantile value, the true quantile value, the third position of the list will be the exact area / probability to the left of the approximate quantile.
@errence,
As the width of the sample goes to zero the Riemann Sum approaches the integral. It a numerical method used to approximate an integral.
The statistics is a product of the behavior of the function over the ordinant step size.
