Gaussian Quadrature Weights and Abscissae
https://pomax.github.io/bezierinfo/legendre-gauss.htmlGaussian Quadrature Weights and Abscissae. This page is a tabulation of weights and abscissae for use in performing Legendre-Gauss quadrature integral approximation, which tries to solve the following function by picking approximate values for n, w i and x i.While only defined for the interval [-1,1], this is actually a universal function, because we can convert the limits of …
Gaussian quadrature - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_QuadratureAn n -point Gaussian quadrature rule, named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, is a quadrature rule constructed to yield an exact result for polynomials of degree 2n − 1 or less by a suitable choice of the nodes xi and weights wi for i = 1, ..., n. The modern formulation using orthogonal polynomials was developed by Carl Gustav Jacobi 1826.
