Additionally, compile time floating-point evaluation is limited. When I looked around recently, I didn't see a rust equivalent of gcem; any kind of transcendental function evaluation (which finding Gaussian quadrature points absolutely would require) would not allow compile-time evaluation.

this method is much faster and simpler.

For what it's worth,

    use integrate::adaptive_quadrature::simpson::adaptive_simpson_method;
    use statrs::distribution::{Continuous, Normal};

    fn dnorm(x: f64) -> f64 {
        Normal::new(0.0, 1.0).unwrap().pdf(x)
    }
    
    fn main() {
        let result = adaptive_simpson_method(dnorm, -100.0, 100.0, 1e-2, 1e-8);
        println!("Result: {:?}", result);
    }

It does seem to be a usability hazard that the function being integrated is defined as a fn, rather than a Fn, as you can't pass closures that capture variables, requiring the weird dnorm definition

https://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/NIntegrateOv...

    use integrate::{
        gauss_quadrature::hermite::gauss_hermite_rule,
    };
    use statrs::distribution::{Continuous, Normal};

    fn dnorm(x: f64) -> f64 {
        Normal::new(0.0, 1.0).unwrap().pdf(x)* x.powi(2).exp()
    }

    fn main() {
        let n: usize = 170;
        let result = gauss_hermite_rule(dnorm, n);
        println!("Result: {:?}", result);
    }

Or, probably, dnorm is a probability distribution which includes a likeliness function, and a cumulative likeliness function, etc. I bet it doesn't work on arbitrary functions.

There are common library extensions for that.

You can email me if you want to, I'll be happy to help.
