Type function

Type function in Maple means an expression of the form f(x) where x could be anything. Thus sin(1) is of type function.

Your function f (in the mathematical sense) is of type procedure in Maple.

Your aprox doesn't quite do what you want it to do though even with the type check change. Here is a modified version. You may want to include an evalf wrapped around [resp] at the end:

aprox:=proc(fn::procedure,x::realcons,iteracions::integer)
local i,resp;
resp:=NULL;
for i from 1 to iteracions do
resp:=resp,[x+(1/i),fn(x+(1/i))];
end do;
[resp]
end proc;

Wow, thank you very much Preben Alsholm!
