GEGENBAUER_RULE
Gauss-Gegenbauer Quadrature Rules


GEGENBAUER_RULE is a C++ program which generates a specific Gauss-Gegenbauer quadrature rule, based on user input.

The rule is written to three files for easy use as input to other programs.

The Gauss-Gegenbauer quadrature rule is used as follows:

        Integral ( A <= x <= B ) ((x-A)(B-X))^alpha f(x) dx
      
is to be approximated by
        Sum ( 1 <= i <= order ) w(i) * f(x(i))
      
where alpha is a real parameter greater than -1.

Usage:

gegenbauer_rule order alpha a b filename
