integrate.mstR: Numerical integration by linear interpolation (for mstR...

In mstR: Procedures to Generate Patterns under Multistage Testing

Description

This command computes the integral of function f(x) by providing values of x and f(x), similarly to the integrate.xy function of the R package sfsmisc.

Usage

integrate.mstR(x, y)
 

Arguments

x	numeric: a vector of x values for numerical integration.
y	numeric: a vector of numerical values corresponding to f(x) values.

Details

This function was written to compute "cheap" numerical integration by providing sequences of x values and corresponding computed values f(x). It works similarly as the integrate.xy function when use.spline=FALSE is required. It was developed internally to eventually remove dependency of mstR package to package sfsmisc.

Value

The approximated integral.

Examples

  x <- seq(from = -4, to = 4, length = 33)
 y <- exp(x)
 integrate.mstR(x, y) # 54.86381
