Integration of data obtained at fixed intervals.
This article discusses the design and implementation of a program well suited to integrating experimental or simulated data obtained at fixed intervals. The program uses Simpson's method and produces substantially better accuracy than trapezoidal rule integration at little extra computational cost. It accepts command line specification of integration parameters (step size and/or number) and source files. Multiple source files and integration parameters can be specified at runtime. Output can be displayed on the console or redirected to an ASCII file.
