% Lab 3: Recursive Trapezoidal Rule
function [result,n]=RecurTrapzd(func, a, b, toler)
% func is the function file specified by the user.
% a: lower integral limit.
% b: upper integral limit.
% toler is the difference between the successive integrations.
% result is the estimated integral.
% n is the number of times that the integral (a,b) is subdivided.
%
% Finding out the TZero to start the recursive trapezoidal rule:
Tzero = (b-a)*0.5*(feval(func,a)+feval(func,b));
n = 1; % Setting initial number of the integral to be divided.
h = b-a; % Calculating the step size
% Using TZero to find TOne by adding the h_step to the a value.
Tzero = 0.5*(Tzero + h*feval(func,(a + 0.5*h)));
% The TOne is found.
TOne = Tzero;
Result = TOne;
% Finding out if the difference between the successive integral estimations
% is less than the tolerance value (1e-4). If not, keep on iterating using
while loop.
while abs(TOne-Tzero)>toler
% if abs value is > toler, reset the Tzero as the TOne.
Tzero = TOne;
% Increasing the amount to divide the (b-a).
n = n + 1;
% from the Recursive trap formula 2^(j-1).
tnm = 2^(n-1);
h = (b-a)/tnm;
x1 = a+(0.5*h);
% Figuring out the sum which was initially set to zero.
Sum = 0.0;
for Z = 1:tnm
% subsituting the x1 into function and sum
Sum = Sum + feval(func,x1);
% Increasing x1 by a step size
x1 = x1+h;
end
% new TZero value obatained
Tzero = 0.5*(Tzero+h*Sum);
TOne =Tzero; %T(1) is assigned with the new s value
Result(n+1)=TOne;

% a is the lower integral limit.
% b is the upper integral limit.
% toler is the tolerance of difference between the successive integrations.
% Result is the estimated integral.
