==Java's trap function==
The Trap function in the Java example does not call F(X). Is this an error? --[[User:Waldorf|Waldorf]] 14:21, 21 December 2007 (MST)
:Good catch. I'm working on it now. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 14:29, 21 December 2007 (MST)

::** [0,268435456] -- 2^55.
::At only 32 steps each, these should take minimal time to compute, while poking the boundaries of 32-bit and 64-bit precision. (You could possibly reduce it to 2 or 4 steps, or even 1 step if you don't care a great deal about the precision of the other methods. (I could be way off here. I haven't actively applied calculus since I took Calc 2 in college about eight years ago. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 15:31, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
Computation time didn't bother me, but I think the choice of n being up in the millions causes multiple digits of precision to be lost in accumulated representation error. The result is that differences between methods are obscured by the common effect of accumulated representation error. I agree, 32 would be a fine number. So would 4, or 10, or even 1000. —[[User:Sonia|Sonia]] 22:40, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
== missing or incomplete output(s) ==
Has anyone else noticed that almost '''1/2''' of the programming examples don't have any output or have an incomplete output? (Output should have twenty results). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 22:00, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
== the deletion of the ''Common Lisp'' entry ==
Why was the '''Common Lisp''' programming language entry replaced with '''Comal''' with no explanation (on July 3<sup>rd</sup>) ? -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 21:55, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Thanks, [[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]], for restoring the '''Common Lisp''' entry. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 20:42, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
