Is this not the same as the Riemann sum article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.227.97.112 (talk) 14:17, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed; it is the same as the Riemann sum. There is a stale merge proosal (open for 4 years) suggesting a merge to Riemann integral; however, the merge to Riemann sum suggestion is better; I'll change the tag and hopefully that will stimulate some discussion.

I wouldn't suggest the merge, most texts of numerical analysis make a clear difference between midpoint rule (or rectangle method) and Riemann sum. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 181.163.76.184 (talk) 22:48, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Needs more on error: left approximation, condition (f is C^3?). Make connection with other quadrature rules. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 03:03, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
