Hi,

Which examples are you referring to?

Since there is some (minor) interest in such a library I uploaded a  
small example of the implementation I use. It does not contain all  
the integration routines, especially romberg and Monte-Carlo. Before  
including those, I'd like to get feedback on how people would like to  
be able to call such a library.

Right now it's tuned for my own usage, that's why I used template  
classes and not just template functions.

The main design objective was to be able to use it on any functor  
inheriting from std::unary_function and any predicate to decide when  
the required quadrature precision is achieved. There are undoubtedly  
a lot of room for improvements, but it should perform slightly better  
than a typical numerical recipes  in C algorithm while being a lot  
more generic (and not involving static local variables ;-) ).

Here is the URL

Feedback is most welcome, as I'd really love to have a unified,  
coherent approach to achieving quadrature in C++.

Best Regards,

Franck
