12.2.1 WEDDLE'S RULE (WEDDLE)
Weddle's Rule is a Newton-Cotes type integral formula (see F. B.
Hildebrand, Introduction to Numerical Analysis, McGraw-Hill, 1956).
WEDDLE is a univariate integration formula and a 7-point Weddle Rule is
used over each of n subintervals. This is accomplished by
CALL WEDDLE(AX,BX,N,FUNC,ANS,IER)
where AX and BX are the lower and upper limits of integration
respectively, N is the number of subintervals to be used from AX to BX,
FUNC is the name of the function that evaluates the integrand, and ANS
will contain the answer. IER = 0 normal return = -3 AX is greater than BX
