FORTRAN 90 Interface

Generic: CALL QDAWS (F, A, B, IWEIGH, ALPHA, BETAW, RESULT[] )

Specific: The specific interface names are S_QDAWS and D_QDAWS.

FORTRAN 77 Interface

Single: CALL QDAWS (F, A, B, IWEIGH, ALPHA, BETAW, ERRABS, ERRREL, RESULT, ERREST)

Double: The double precision name is DQDAWS.

Description

The routine QDAWS uses a globally adaptive scheme in an attempt to reduce the absolute error. This routine computes integrals whose integrands have the special form w(xf(x), where w(x) is a weight function described above. A combination of modified Clenshaw-Curtis and Gauss-Kronrod formulas is employed. In addition to the general strategy described for the IMSL routine QDAG, this routine uses an extrapolation procedure known as the ɛ-algorithm. The routine QDAWS is an implementation of the routine QAWS, which is fully documented by Piessens et al. (1983).

Comments

1. Workspace may be explicitly provided, if desired, by use of Q2AWS/DQ2AWS. The reference is

CALL Q2AWS (F, A, B, IWEIGH, ALPHA, BETAW, ERRABS, ERRREL, RESULT, ERREST, MAXSUB, NEVAL, NSUBIN, ALIST, BLIST, RLIST, ELIST, IORD)

The additional arguments are as follows:

MAXSUB — Maximum number of subintervals allowed. (Input)
A value of 500 is used by QDAWS.

NEVAL — Number of evaluations of F. (Output)

NSUBIN — Number of subintervals generated. (Output)

ALIST — Array of length MAXSUB containing a list of the NSUBIN left endpoints. (Output)

BLIST — Array of length MAXSUB containing a list of the NSUBIN right endpoints. (Output)

RLIST — Array of length MAXSUB containing approximations to the NSUBIN integrals over the intervals defined by ALIST, BLIST. (Output)

ELIST — Array of length MAXSUB containing the error estimates of the NSUBIN values in RLIST. (Output)

IORD — Array of length MAXSUB. Let k be NSUBIN if NSUBIN .LE. (MAXSUB/2 + 2), MAXSUB + 1  NSUBIN otherwise. The first k locations contain pointers to the error estimates over the subintervals, such that ELIST(IORD(1)), ELIST(IORD(k)) form a decreasing sequence. (Output)

Type

Code

Description

4

1

The maximum number of subintervals allowed has been reached.

3

2

Roundoff error, preventing the requested tolerance from being achieved, has been detected.

3

3

A degradation in precision has been detected.

3. If EXACT is the exact value, QDAWS attempts to find RESULT such that ABS(EXACT  RESULT).LE.MAX(ERRABSERRREL * ABS(EXACT)). To specify only a relative error, set ERRABS to zero. Similarly, to specify only an absolute error, set ERRREL to zero.

Example

The value of

 

is estimated. The values of the actual and estimated error are machine dependent.
