pro qsimp, func, A, B, S, EPS=eps, MAX_ITER = max_iter, _EXTRA = _EXTRA ;+ ; NAME: ; QSIMP ; PURPOSE: ; Integrate using Simpson's rule to specified accuracy. ; EXPLANATION: ; Integrate a function to specified accuracy using the extended ; trapezoidal rule. Adapted from algorithm in Numerical Recipes, ; by Press et al. (1992, 2nd edition), Section 4.2. This procedure ; has been partly obsolete since IDL V3.5 with the introduction of the ; intrinsic function QSIMP(), but see notes below. ; ; CALLING SEQUENCE: ; QSIMP, func, A, B, S, [ EPS = , MAX_ITER =, _EXTRA = ] ; ; INPUTS: ; func - scalar string giving name of function of one variable to ; be integrated ; A,B - numeric scalars giving the lower and upper bound of the ; integration ; ; OUTPUTS: ; S - Scalar giving the approximation to the integral of the specified ; function between A and B. ; ; OPTIONAL KEYWORD PARAMETERS: ; EPS - scalar specifying the fractional accuracy before ending the ; iteration. Default = 1E-6 ; MAX_ITER - Integer specifying the total number iterations at which ; QSIMP will terminate even if the specified accuracy has not yet ; been met. The maximum number of function evaluations will be ; 2^(MAX_ITER). Default value is MAX_ITER = 20 ; ; Any other keywords are passed directly to the user-supplied function ; via the _EXTRA facility. ; NOTES: ; (1) The function QTRAP is robust way of doing integrals that are not ; very smooth. However, if the function has a continuous 3rd derivative ; then QSIMP will likely be more efficient at performing the integral. ; ; (2) QSIMP can be *much* faster than the intrinsic QSIMP() function (as ; of IDL V5.3). This is because the intrinsic QSIMP() function only ; requires that the user supplied function accept a *scalar* variable. ; Thus on the the 16th iteration, the intrinsic QSIMP() makes 32,767 ; calls to the user function, whereas this procedure makes one call ; with a 32,767 element vector. Also, unlike the intrinsic QSIMP(), this ; procedure allows keywords in the user-supplied function. ; ; (3) Since the intrinsic QSIMP() is a function, and this file contains a ; procedure, there should be no name conflict. ; EXAMPLE: ; Compute the integral of sin(x) from 0 to !PI/3. ; ; IDL> QSIMP, 'sin', 0, !PI/3, S & print, S ; ; The value obtained should be cos(!PI/3) = 0.5 ; ; PROCEDURES CALLED: ; TRAPZD, ZPARCHECK ; ; REVISION HISTORY: ; W.
