5 Parameters

1: NDIM – INTEGERInput: On entry: $n$ , the number of dimensions of the integral.
Constraint: $NDIM \geq 1$ .
2: NP1 – INTEGERInput: On entry: the larger prime factor $p_{1}$ of the number of points in the integration rule.
Constraint: $NP1$ must be a prime number $\geq 5$ .
3: NP2 – INTEGERInput: On entry: the smaller prime factor $p_{2}$ of the number of points in the integration rule. For maximum efficiency, $p_{2}^{2}$ should be close to $p_{1}$ .
Constraint: $NP2$ must be a prime number such that $NP1 > NP2 \geq 2$ .
4: VK(NDIM) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayOutput: On exit: the $n$ optimal coefficients.
5: IFAIL – INTEGERInput/Output: On entry: IFAIL must be set to $0$ , $- 1 or 1$ . If you are unfamiliar with this parameter you should refer to Section 3.3 in the Essential Introduction for details.
For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value $- 1 or 1$ is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value $1$ is recommended. Otherwise, if you are not familiar with this parameter, the recommended value is $0$ . When the value $- 1 or 1$ is used it is essential to test the value of IFAIL on exit.

On exit: $IFAIL = 0$ unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry

IFAIL = 0

- 1

, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by X04AAF).

Errors or warnings detected by the routine:

$IFAIL = 1$

On entry,

NDIM < 1

$IFAIL = 2$

On entry,	$NP1 < 5$ ,
or	$NP2 < 2$ ,
or	$NP1 \leq NP2$ .

$IFAIL = 3$: The value $NP1 \times NP2$ exceeds the largest integer representable on the machine, and hence the optimal coefficients could not be used in a valid call of D01GCF or D01GDF.

$IFAIL = 4$

On entry,

NP1 is not a prime number.

$IFAIL = 5$

On entry,

NP2 is not a prime number.

$IFAIL = 6$: The precision of the machine is insufficient to perform the computation exactly. Try smaller values of NP1 or NP2, or use an implementation with higher precision.
