QUADRULE_FAST
Efficient Quadrature Rule Implementation


QUADRULE_FAST, a MATLAB library which implements fast and efficient forms of several popular quadrature rules.

The quadrature rules are defined on the interval [-1,1], and assume there is no additional weighting factor in the data.

The fast implementations are exhibited and discussed in the papers by Trefethen and Waldvogel.
