Follow these steps to perform the simulation easily and without confusion:

1. Read the Problem Statement

   • The problem statement is shown on the left side of the simulation.

2. Initialize the Experiment

   • Enter the lower and upper limits of integration (a and b) in the input fields provided.
   • Make sure that b > a and b - a >= 1.
   • Click the OK button to save your values.

3. Start the Simulation

   • Click the Start button to begin the simulation.

4. Step Through the Code

   • Click the Next button to execute the code step by step.
   • The currently executing line in the code will be highlighted in the center panel.

5. View the Visualization and Output

   • The right panel displays the graph showing the area under the curve as the code executes.
   • Local variables and the output of the code are shown below the graph for each step.

6. Repeat or Reset

   • You can change the input values and repeat the simulation as needed.

Manual

In this lab, you calculate the area under a curve using numerical approximation techniques. The simulation helps you visualize each step of the process interactively.
