Interval math, center is affected by ε term. Dual does not do that. R1/R2 = (3-4ε)/(5+6ε) .. (3+4ε)/(5-6ε) ≈ 0.6000000001824 ± 1.520000000219e-5 For more complicated expression, however, end-points may not work. For f(x±eps), we really need to consider the whole shape. a = min(f(x±eps)) b = max(f(x±eps)) f(x±eps) = (b+a)/2 ± (b-a)/2 Worse, calculations cannot not be "chained". If we apply g on top, f(x±eps) calculations should be tossed. a = min(g(f(x±eps))) b = max(g(f(x±eps))) g(f(x±eps)) = (b+a)/2 ± (b-a)/2 Of course, we can ignore all this, and just use interval end-points. But, resulting intervals may not be right. Garbage in, Garbage out. |
