ALPERT_RULE
Alpert Quadrature for regular, log singular, and power singular functions

ALPERT_RULE is a C library which has tabulated values that define Alpert quadrature rules of a number of orders of accuracy for functions that are regular, log singular, or power singular.

The rules defined here assume that the integral is to be taken over the interval [0,1]. The interval is divided into N+1 intervals. The leftmost and rightmost intervals are handled in a special way, depending on whether a particular kind of singularity is expected.

A singularity may exist at the left endpoint, x = 0. The cases are:

• regular, no singularity;
• power, the integrand has the form g(x)=x^(-1/2)*phi(x)+psi(x);
• log, the integrand has the form g(x)=phi(x)*log(x)+psi(x);
