What is the error in this computation?
Show older comments
Here I want to plot a simple sum.
I computed it manually by iterating different values, and then did it same by using for loop, but there is some mistake, can somebody figure it out for me.
Below given is my code:
x = 0:pi/16:pi;
s = (8/(pi*(1^3)))*sin(1*x)+...
(8/(pi*(3^3)))*sin(3*x)+...
(8/(pi*(5^3)))*sin(5*x)+...
(8/(pi*(7^3)))*sin(7*x)+...
(8/(pi*(9^3)))*sin(9*x)+...
(8/(pi*(11^3)))*sin(11*x)+...
(8/(pi*(13^3)))*sin(13*x)+...
(8/(pi*(15^3)))*sin(15*x);
ss = 0;
for k =1:16
ss = ss + (8/(pi*(k^3)))*sin(k*x);
end
plot(x,s,'b-',x,ss,'r-');
Why I choose odd values in manual sum because sin(k*pi) = 0, where k=2,4,... ,but i took all (even and odd) values in for loop
The plot generated is given below:
