Numerical Integration Using Fortran 90
I'm trying to use Simpson's rule to evaluate the integral of sqrt(1-x^2) in the interval from -1 to 1. However, the sum represented by the variable "s", in the code that I developed, doesn't converge at all to pi over 2. I'm an absolute novice to…

Problem using Simpson's integration rule in GAMS
I have made a simple code using GAMS which determines the maximum reach of a glider using trapeziod integration. I want to recreate the same program with SImpson's integration, however, I cannot understand the results.
This is the functional code…
