-You learn that the permissible energies take discrete values like $E_n = n + 1/2$. In an effort to understand how this can be generalised, you might try to perturb the potential that you have above so that it includes a small higher-order term, like this:+You learn that the permissible energies take discrete values like $E_n = (n + 1/2)$.
