D01ANF is based on the QUADPACK routine QFOUR (see Piessens et al. (1983)
). It is an adaptive routine, designed to integrate a function of the form
. If a sub-interval has length
then the integration over this sub-interval is performed by means of a modified Clenshaw–Curtis procedure (see Piessens and Branders (1975)
In this case a Chebyshev series approximation of degree
is used to approximate
, while an error estimate is computed from this approximation together with that obtained using Chebyshev series of degree
. If the above conditions do not hold then Gauss
-point and Kronrod
-point rules are used. The algorithm, described in Piessens et al. (1983)
, incorporates a global acceptance criterion (as defined in Malcolm and Simpson (1976)
) together with the
-algorithm (see Wynn (1956)
) to perform extrapolation. The local error estimation is described in

For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value
is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value
is recommended. Otherwise, because for this routine the values of the output parameters may be useful even if
on exit, the recommended value is
. When the value is used it is essential to test the value of IFAIL on exit.

6 Error Indicators and Warnings
If on entry
, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by X04AAF
Note: D01ANF may return useful information for one or more of the following detected errors or warnings.
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
The maximum number of subdivisions allowed with the given workspace has been reached without the accuracy requirements being achieved. Look at the integrand in order to determine the integration difficulties. If the position of a local difficulty within the interval can be determined (e.g., a singularity of the integrand or its derivative, a peak, a discontinuity, etc.) you will probably gain from splitting up the interval at this point and calling the integrator on the subranges. If necessary, another integrator, which is designed for handling the type of difficulty involved, must be used. Alternatively, consider relaxing the accuracy requirements specified by EPSABS
, or increasing the amount of workspace.
Round-off error prevents the requested tolerance from being achieved. Consider requesting less accuracy.
Extremely bad local behaviour of causes a very strong subdivision around one (or more) points of the interval. The same advice applies as in the case of .
The requested tolerance cannot be achieved because the extrapolation does not increase the accuracy satisfactorily; the returned result is the best which can be obtained. The same advice applies as in the case of .
The integral is probably divergent, or slowly convergent. Please note that divergence can occur with any nonzero value of IFAIL
On entry, or .
D01ANF cannot guarantee, but in practice usually achieves, the following accuracy:

The time taken by D01ANF depends on the integrand and the accuracy required.
