In my approach, I will use a hypothetical rectangle with co-ordinates (2,0)
, (4,0)
, (2, 256)
and (4, 256)
. I will generate random xy co-ordinates within this rectangle and find the ratio between the number of co-ordinates that fall within the region defined by y ≤ x^4
and the number of co-ordinates that fall within the entire rectangle. Multiplying this by the area of the rectangle should give me the area under the graph.
I am struggling to generate random decimal xy co-ordinates in the defined rectangle. Any help would be much appreciated :)
I have only just started integration in school so my knowledge in this area is quite narrow as of now.
Here is my code:
public class IntegralOfX2 {
public static double randDouble(double min, double max) {
min = 2;
max = 4;
Random rand = new Random();
double randomNum;
randomNum = min + rand.nextDouble((max - min) + 1); // an error keeps occuring here
return randomNum;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
double x = 0; // x co-ordinate of dart
double y = 0; // y co-ordinate of dart
int total_darts = 0; // the total number of darts
int success_darts = 0; // the number of successful darts
double xmax = 4;
double xmin = 2;
double ymax = 256;
double ymin = 0;
double area = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 400000000; i++) {
// x = randDouble(xmin, xmax);
// y = randDouble(ymin, ymax);
x = xmin + (Math.random() * ((xmax - xmin) + 1));
y = ymin + (Math.random() * ((ymax - ymin) + 1));
total_darts++;
if (y <= (x * x * x * x)) {
success_darts++;
}
}
double ratio = (double)success_darts/(double)total_darts;
area = ratio * 512;
System.out.println(area);
}
}
