(n, mu=False)[source]¶ Gauss-Legendre (shifted) quadrature.
Compute the sample points and weights for Gauss-Legendre quadrature. The sample points are the roots of the nth degree shifted Legendre polynomial \(P^*_n(x)\). These sample points and weights correctly integrate polynomials of degree \(2n - 1\) or less over the interval \([0, 1]\) with weight function \(w(x) = 1.0\). See 2.2.11 in [AS] for details.
- Parameters
- nint
quadrature order
- mubool, optional
If True, return the sum of the weights, optional.
- Returns
- xndarray
Sample points
- wndarray
Weights
- mufloat
Sum of the weights
