Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Hmmm? Change that exp(-x) to sqrt(x) and change f(0,50 ) to f(0,1)

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Try adjusting rombergtol: 1.e-3

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
There should be a global variable called rombergit. What is its value?

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Set it 25. and rombergtol: 1.e-6, what happens?
You should know about these:
http://eagle.cs.kent.edu/MAXIMA/maxima_21.html
http://www.csulb.edu/~woollett/
get them if you do not.

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Here is more:
http://maxima.sourceforge.net/documentation.html
I got
romberg(1/(cos(x)+x^2), x, 0, 100);
1.828017700397752
which is accurate. By setting rombergit to 200 and rombergtol to 1E-10.
Now you need to get a bfloat in there somehow.

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Hi bobbym
How do I get more accuracy out of NIntegrate?

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Easy, use WorkingPrecision-> some number.

Re: Kummer and a tough integral.
Ah, there it is. I found the AccuracyGoal and PrecisionGoal, but they didn't help.
Thanks!

WorkingPrecision did not work?
