The uncertainty of the 
approximation of the integral. 
The integral is 1.61±0.0161. Since the uncertainty would not affect the 
approximation until its third decimal place, you can consider all the displayed 
digits in this approximation to be accurate. 
If the uncertainty of an approximation is larger than what you choose to tolerate, 
you can increase the number of digits in the display format and repeat the 
integration (provided that f(x) is still calculated accurately to the number of digits 
shown in the display), In general, the uncertainty of an integration calculation 
decreases by a factor of ten for each additional digit, specified in the display 
format. 
Example:
 Changing the Accuracy.
 
For the integral of Si(2) just calculated, specify that the result be accurate to four 
decimal places instead of only two.
