CIRCLE_RULE
Quadrature Rules for the Unit Circle

CIRCLE_RULE is a FORTRAN90 library which computes quadrature rules for approximating integrals over the circumference of the unit circle.

The user specifies the value NT, the number of equally spaced angles. The program returns vectors T(1:NT) and W(1:NT), which define the rule Q(f).

Given NT and the vectors T and W, the integral I(f) of a function f(x,y) is estimated by Q(f) as follows:

        q = 0.0
        for i = 1, nt
          x = cos ( t(i) )
          y = sin ( t(i) )
          q = q + w(j) * f ( x, y )
        end
