1 Purpose

D02UYF obtains the weights for Clenshaw–Curtis quadrature at Chebyshev points. This allows for fast approximations of integrals for functions specified on Chebyshev Gauss–Lobatto points on

[- 1, 1]

2 Specification

SUBROUTINE D02UYF (

N, W, IFAIL)

INTEGER	N, IFAIL
REAL (KIND=nag_wp)	W(N+1)

3 Description

D02UYF obtains the weights for Clenshaw–Curtis quadrature at Chebyshev points.

Given the (Clenshaw–Curtis) weights

w_{i}

, for

i = 0, 1, \dots, n

, and function values

f_{i} = f (t_{i})

(where

t_{i} = - \cos (i \times π / n)

, for

i = 0, 1, \dots, n

, are the Chebyshev Gauss–Lobatto points), then

\int_{- 1}^{1} f (x) d x \approx \sum_{i = 0}^{n} w_{i} f_{i}

For a function discretized on a Chebyshev Gauss–Lobatto grid on

[a, b]

the resultant summation must be multiplied by the factor

(b - a) / 2

5 Parameters

1: $N$ – INTEGERInput: On entry: $n$ , where the number of grid points is $n + 1$ .

Constraint: $N > 0$ and N is even.
2: $W (N + 1)$ – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayOutput: On exit: the Clenshaw–Curtis quadrature weights, $w_{i}$ , for $i = 0, 1, \dots, n$ .
3: $IFAIL$ – 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, $N = 〈value〉$ .
Constraint: $N > 0$ .

On entry, $N = 〈value〉$ .
Constraint: N is even.

$IFAIL = - 99$: An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.
See Section 3.8 in the Essential Introduction for further information.

$IFAIL = - 399$: Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 3.7 in the Essential Introduction for further information.

$IFAIL = - 999$: Dynamic memory allocation failed.
See Section 3.6 in the Essential Introduction for further information.

7 Accuracy

The accuracy should be close to machine precision.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Not applicable.

9 Further Comments

A real array of length

2 n

is internally allocated.
