Hello,
Realised that the two commands copied from Mathematica do not appear in the
actual form in my previous message. Sorry for using the wrong text form.
What I meant were as flow:
1. NIntegrate[f(x),{x,0,n}]
2. N[Integrate[f(x),{x,0,n}]]
Cheers.

Dear all,
I would like to find out the difference between the following two commands
on Mathematica:
1. <<...OLE_Obj...>>
2. <<...OLE_Obj...>>
Is there anything wrong in writing in the 2nd way? Can anyone tell me the
difference between the algorithm used by Mathematica (Versions 3 & 4) in
performing the above two operations?
For a same problem, both commands give the same numerical answer but the 2nd
has an error message. Can anyone tell me why?
Best regards,
