%Returns area under h-function over interval [k*step,k*step+step]: %KVK: This assgnment syntax, "retv=calculat.." drives us crazy: it seems upward: in reality function takes value retv. function retv=betaPortion(k, step) t=k*step; power=t+1; p2=power*power; p4=p2*p2; value1=1/(p2*p4); %6 t=t+step; power=t+1; p2=power*power; p4=p2*p2; retv=value1-1/(p2*p4); end Copyright (C) 2009 Konstantin Kirillov
