numerical_integration: Numerical Integration

Description

Functions for numerical integration using various methods such as trapezoidal rule, Gauss-Legendre quadrature, and Gauss-Kronrod quadrature.

Usage

trapezoidal(f, a, b, tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps), max_refinements = 12)
gauss_legendre(f, a, b, points = 7)
gauss_kronrod(
  f,
  a,
  b,
  points = 15,
  max_depth = 15,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps)
)

Value

A single numeric value with the computed integral.

Arguments

f

A function to integrate. It should accept a single numeric value and return a single numeric value.

a

The lower limit of integration.

b

The upper limit of integration.

tol

The tolerance for the approximation. Default is sqrt(.Machine$double.eps).

max_refinements

The maximum number of refinements to apply. Default is 12.

points

The number of evaluation points to use in the Gauss-Legendre or Gauss-Kronrod quadrature.

max_depth

Sets the maximum number of interval splittings for Gauss-Kronrod permitted before stopping. Set this to zero for non-adaptive quadrature.

Examples

# Trapezoidal rule integration of sin(x) from 0 to pi
trapezoidal(sin, 0, pi)
# Gauss-Legendre integration of exp(x) from 0 to 1
gauss_legendre(exp, 0, 1, points = 7)
# Adaptive Gauss-Kronrod integration of log(x) from 1 to 2
gauss_kronrod(log, 1, 2, points = 15, max_depth = 10)
