hermite_rule, a FORTRAN90 code which computes and print a Gauss-Hermite quadrature rule for estimating the integral of a function with density exp(-x^2) over the interval (-oo,+oo).
The rule is written to three files for easy use as input to other programs.
The Gauss-Hermite quadrature rule is used as follows:
c * Integral ( -oo < x < +oo ) f(x) exp ( - b * ( x - a )^2 ) dx
is to be approximated by
Sum ( 1 <= i <= order ) w(i) * f(x(i))
Generally, a Gauss-Hermite quadrature rule of n points will
produce the exact integral when f(x) is a polynomial of degree
2n-1 or less.
The value of C in front of the integral depends on the user's choice of the SCALE parameter:
