Computing the norm of the error
- e^n is a mesh function
- Usually we want one number for the error
- Use a norm of e^n
Norms of a function f(t) :
\begin{align}
||f||_{L^2} &= \left( \int_0^T f(t)^2 dt\right)^{1/2}
\tag{25}\\
||f||_{L^1} &= \int_0^T |f(t)| dt
\tag{26}\\
||f||_{L^\infty} &= \max_{t\in [0,T]}|f(t)|
\tag{27}
\end{align}
