Hello, my program works ok when I pass to the function simpson all four parameters as doubles and ints, but because I need the last parameter to be passed as a function, I get errors. I have written problem_13.cpp and simpson.h programs. I think I understand pointer functions, but they seem to not work for me. The errors I get are from these lines:
f = simpson(a,b,n,function(fk_1)); from problem_13.cpp line 26
f = simpson(a,b,n,function(fk_2)); from problem_13.cpp line 31
double simpson(double a, double b, int n, double function); from simpson.h file line 8
if (function(fk_1) == true); from simpson.h file line 12
if (function(fk_2) == true); from simpson.h file line 20
Please help me to understand how to solve these errors and make a function passed as a parameter to simpson() where I need the 4th parameter to be fk_1() or fk_2(). Looking forward to all responses.
problem_13.cpp:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55
