I can't seem to figure out how to get the right value for my integral. I'm not getting an error and when I test the separate elements of my function it seems to give me back all the right values but when I put it all together it gives me a bad result.
So far this is what I have
def trap_rule(y_values, x_values): delta = (x_values[-1] - x_values[0])/(len(x_values)) int_ = 0.0 for i in range(0, len(y_values)): int_ += (y_values[i-1] + y_values[i]) / 2 int_ = int_ * delta return int_mydata_sund= pd.read_csv("sund1.csv")sund_time = list(mydata_sund["time [hr]"])sund_power = list(mydata_sund["power [kW]"])intergral = trap_rule(sund_power, sund_time)The output I get is 3.5005 which I incorrect... I thinkIt does give me two lists with the right data in it so I'm 90% sure it's not a problem with importing the files.And when I calculate my delta_x for my function it also returns the correct value
I have been trying to find answers on here, but I can't seem to find anything related to using a list and not just having the values already given.
Sorry In advance if this is formatted wrong, this is my first time using StackOverflow
