gauss_kronrod: Gauss-Kronrod Quadrature

In pracma: Practical Numerical Math Functions

Gauss-Kronrod Quadrature

Description

Simple Gaussian-Kronrod quadrature formula.

Usage

gauss_kronrod(f, a, b, ...)

Arguments

f	function to be integrated.
a, b	end points of the interval.
...	variables to be passed to the function.

Details

Gaussian quadrature of degree 7 with Gauss-Kronrod of degree 15 for error estimation, the quadQK15 procedure in the QUADPACK library.

Value

List of value and relative error.

Note

The function needs to be vectorized (though this could easily be changed), but the function does not need to be defined at the end points.

Examples

gauss_kronrod(sin, 0, pi)  #  2.000000000000000 , rel.error: 1.14e-12
gauss_kronrod(exp, 0, 1)   #  1.718281828459045 , rel.error: 0
                           #  1.718281828459045 , i.e. exp(1) - 1
