------------------------------------
Sounds good.
If you intend to contribute a bunch of code that is already existing and not
developed within the Apache Commons project, then we would need some paperwork
before including it. All IP holders of this code should sign a Software Grant
that allow the foundation to distribute this under the Apache V2 license. See

> Key: MATH-797
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-797
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Wish
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Reporter: Gilles
> Assignee: Gilles
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 3.1
>
>
> CM assumes that the user wants to integrate a complex function on a large
> interval, so the large interval has to be subdivided into many subintervals.
> CM does the partition, and performs convergence checks, using an iterative
> approach.
> However, if the function is smooth enough, no subdivision of the integration
> interval is required. Those use-cases could benefit from the efficiency gain
> of not performing a convergence check.
> The proposal is to provide a new interface "UnivariateSingleStepIntegrator":
> {code}
> interface SingleIntervalIntegrator {
> /**
> * Method for implementing a single interval integration.
> * There is no convergence checks because it is not iterative.
> *
> * @param f Function to integrate.
> * @param lower Lower bound of the interval over which to integrate.
> * @param upper Upper bound of the interval over which to integrate.
> * @return the integrated value.
> */
> double integrate(UnivariateFunction f,
> double lower,
> double upper);
> }
> {code}
> In effect, the implementation of the above "integrate" method of a new
> "LegendreGaussIntegratorSingleStepIntegrator" would the equivalent of
> "stage(1)" in the current "LegendreGaussIntegrator".
