Purpose
The goal of this toolbox is to provide integration test problems
in order to test integration algorithms.
This allows to test integration algorithms on a larger base of
functions.
Developping these functions is error-prone, so that using this
module allows to save much time.
Moreover, testing an algorithm leads to the difficulty
of chosing a set of test functions.
But all functions are not equally difficult to integrate;
while some are simple, other might be particularily difficult,
leading to poor results.
Comparing two algorithms, each on a different set of functions
will not lead to an accurate view of the algorithm.
This module allows to compare the algorithms more precisely.
In spirit, this module has the same motivations as the Unconstrained
Optimization Scilab toolbox based on the More, Garbow and Hillstrom
collection of functions.
