clenshaw_curtis: Clenshaw-Curtis Quadrature Formula

Description

Clenshaw-Curtis Quadrature Formula

Usage

clenshaw_curtis(f, a = -1, b = 1, n = 1024, ...)

Arguments

f

function, the integrand, without singularities.

a, b

lower and upper limit of the integral; must be finite.

n

Number of Chebyshev nodes to account for.

...

Additional parameters to be passed to the function

Value

Numerical scalar, the value of the integral.

Details

Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature is based on sampling the integrand on Chebyshev points, an operation that can be implemented using the Fast Fourier Transform.

Examples

##  Quadrature with Chebyshev nodes and weights
f <- function(x) sin(x+cos(10*exp(x))/3)
## Not run: ezplot(f, -1, 1, fill = TRUE)
cc <- clenshaw_curtis(f, n = 64)  #=>  0.0325036517151 , true error > 1.3e-10
