Analog of scipy.integrate.quad not implemented #303

Why is there implementation for more stange functions of integration and not for quad?

lebedov commented 4 years ago

The integration algorithms in QUADPACK that scipy exposes are more complicated than simple numerical integration routines and hence less trivial to port to a GPU. At the time I needed a GPU-based numerical integration routine, I opted for the more simple integration techniques to save implementation time (and because they were sufficient for the functions I was integrating then).
