Hi,
I am calculating certain integrals numerically and get back a number.
Now, is it possible to determine how many digits is that answer accurate
to?
E.g.,
NIntegrate[ Exp[-p^2 - q^2], {p, 0, 10}, {q, 0, 10}, Method ->
MonteCarlo[24], MaxPoints -> 1000000]
Gives,
0.791249
How many digits is this answer accurate to?
Thanks,
-M
