(34S) Integration (using the double-exponential method)
This is my implementation of the double exponential integration method for the wp34s.
As stated in other threads, this method copes with discontinuities of the integrand or its derivatives at the integration interval ends, accepts infinities as interval ends and is, usually, much faster than the Romberg method. There are here 3 versions of this program (the 3 versions are not identical in behaviour):
This is the version suited to be keyed in by hand. Code:

This one is the version to be assembled an put into LIB or RAM. Beware that this version does not exactly reproduce the behavior of the other two.

What do people think about including the last one in the 34S firmware?
Does it do the right thing with the final stack? Pauli |

My thumb is up. It could add to the list of WP34s 'uniquenesses'.
BTW, the license and copyright header reads: "M. César". That "M" must stand for marvellous... or may be mathematician... or both in one single letter, by some sort of arcane&syncopated algebraic expression ;O) Saludos Saluti Cordialement Cumprimentos MfG BR + + + + + Luigi Vampa + Free42 '<3' I + + |

I was able to write a version (not to be used in XROM) preserving the stack, but I found some trouble when porting it to XROM. Perhaps I need some advice here. My approach was:
I do not want to use xIN/xOUT because it forces DBLON mode and because I'm not sure if XEQUSR/POPUSR can be used inside xIN/xOUT. In any case, I'm still trying to fix this (looking into ->A..D->).

I'm don't remember what it does to A, B, C & D with stack size 8 -- XROM switches to four level stack mode on entry so they won't be directly altered, although the fills before calling user code might. Quote:I do not want to use xIN/xOUT because it forces DBLON mode and because I'm not sure if XEQUSR/POPUSR can be used inside xIN/xOUT. xIN/xOUT cannot nest so they cannot be used in integrate because the user's program might use a function that uses xIN/xOUT. Quote:In any case, I'm still trying to fix this (looking into ->ABCD->). [->]A..D and A..D[->] stash these four registers away in temporary volatile memory. They provided a way to gain some extra working registers before we had locals. It must be assumed that the temporary registers are lost when XEQUSR is called. - Pauli |

Let me ask a few questions: There is a logic that calculates an epsilon value depending on the display setting. This seems to work fine in FIX mode. But how does this work in SCI/ENG or ALL mode? Note that (unlike RDP) ROUND rounds 1/9 to at most 11 places. Or a certain number of significant digits in SCI/ENG mode. At LBL 40 the program checks if the integration variable is within the integration limits. This is done by calculating the current x and comparing it to tm in R.06. In such cases I always wonder if roundoff errors might not lead to an error here. Suppose tm is 2 and h*j rounds to 2,000000000000001 so that the test returns false. Can this possibly happen? A simple counter would be a safe solution. Very small values of the integral, e.g. 1E–16, may be calculated because the actual value is zero, but just as well the correct value of the true integral. Is the program able to distinguish these two cases? BTW, Pi/2 is directly available as CNST 86. ;-) Dieter |

But how does this work in SCI/ENG or ALL mode? Note that (unlike RDP) ROUND rounds 1/9 to at most 11 places. Or a certain number of significant digits in SCI/ENG mode. Later, epsilon (eps) is mainly used to compute some other values (thr & tm). Such values depend on the number of significant digits displayed thus, epsilon is not an absolute threshold for anything, but a number carrying information about the number of significant digits displayed. This way, eps is more meaningful here in ALL/SCI/ENG modes than in FIX mode. There was also an absolute comparison with eps that allows the program not to iterate (mainly when both integration ends are infinite) through a big number of abscissas whose weights are so small than they do not contribute to the final result. This was only an heuristic to speed-up computation, not the main convergence test. In any case, thanks to your comment, I've found that such test interferes with cases where the integrand is always very small, so I have changed such test and now all tests are relative.

A simple counter would be a safe solution. j is a small integer only updated with INC. h is an integer power of 2 from 2 to 1/256 updated by continued division by 2, all these powers have an exact decimal representation in the wp34s. Thus, h*j is always exactly representable in the machine, so no concerns about roundoff here.

But the program does not distinguish if the true integral is zero and the computed, small, result is due to round-off, or the computed, small, result is a nice approximation of a small but not zero integral.

(03-27-2017 12:10 AM)Paul Dale Wrote: That's how I thought it worked. Seems I was wrong or something got lost somewhere. The current integration code can be examined on sourceforge.net. The exit routine at int_done starts with the last two approximations in X and Y, then recalls the two limits and rearranges the stack so that the limits are in Z and T and the last two approximations in X and Y. And indeed there is no final STO–Y that would leave an error estimate in Y. Edit: The switch from Gauss-Kronrod to Romberg was somewhere between v2240 and v2260. If you compare the integration code of v2240 with that of v2260 you will notice that the former indeed calculated an error estimate from the last two approximations... Code: /* Set up the stack for our output */ ...while already the earliest Romberg versions didn't: Code: /* Three matches in a row is goodness. */ ...and this obviously has never been corrected. Since the 34s manual says the user interface is "as in the HP-15C" I think this should be done, e.g. like this: Code: int_done:: RCL- Y This way (last approx. – prev. approx.) is returned in Y.

RE: (WP-34S) Integration (using the double-exponential method)
I'll change my program to return an error estimation in Y.
I've found that, after the change I made cause of Dieter's comment about epsilon, there's now a way to discern when a small result is due to roundoff when evaluating an integral that is zero or a small result due to an integral that is truly small, but different from 0. I'll try to add an heuristic to return 0 when the integral seems to be zero. Regards. |

RE: (WP-34S) Integration (using the double-exponential method)
Changes done (v1.2r and v1.2x).
Now the program:
There's also a check around the estimated error used to distinguish between integrals that evaluate to 0 and those that evaluate to small numbers. Now, integrals suspected to be equal to 0 are reported as such, thus \(\int_{-\pi}^\pi \cos(x)dx\) will be evaluated to 0, but \(\int_{-\pi/2}^{\pi/2} 10^{-100}\cos(x)dx\) will be evaluated to \(2·10^{-100}\). Both computations will return and estimated error different from 0. Regards. Edited: removing the comment about ABCD remaining untouched. |

These commands stash the register values at a fixed location in volatile RAM which will be lost under some circumstances. It will also break with nested integrals or with mixed solve and integrate. The only way to preserve the A-D registers is to allocate four additional local registers for the purpose. The A..D-> and ->A..D commands are left from when I implemented solve without the benefit of local registers and had to squeeze everything into a very limited number of special XROM registers. I needed more temporary space so I added these two commands. Like several other specials for XROM, they are extremely specific to my purpose at the time and come with major caveats. - Pauli |
