}


## The function to be integrated

fbeta <- function(x, alpha, beta)
{
    x^(alpha - 1) * (1 - x)^(beta - 1)
}


## Compute the approximate integral, the exact integral and the error

b0 <- area(fbeta, 0, 1, alpha=3.5, beta=1.5)
b1 <- exp(lgamma(3.5) + lgamma(1.5) - lgamma(5))
c(b0, b1, b0-b1)


## Modify the function so that it records where it was evaluated

fbeta.tmp <- function (x, alpha, beta)
{
    val <<- c(val, x)
    x^(alpha - 1) * (1 - x)^(beta - 1)
}


## Recompute and plot the evaluation points.

val <- NULL
b0 <- area(fbeta.tmp, 0, 1, alpha=3.5, beta=1.5)
plot(val, fbeta(val, 3.5, 1.5), pch=0)


## Better programming style -- renaming the function will have no effect.
## The use of "Recall" as in V+R is VERY black magic.  You can get the
## same effect transparently by supplying a wrapper function.
## This is the approved Abelson+Sussman method.
