Improved Euler Formula
www.cs.unc.edu › ~dm › UNCImproved Euler Formula. A better approximation method can be obtained if the integrand in Eq. is approximated more accurately. One way to do this is to replace the integrand by the average of its values at the two endpoints, namely, . This is equivalent to approximating the area under the curve between and by the area of the shaded trapezoid
