Newton-Raphson Root Finding

This allows user to display the Newton-Raphson procedure one step at a time. It uses the heuristic that, if any of the values of the controls change, then the procedure should be re-started, else it should be continued.

Gaussian (Legendre) quadrature

by Jason Grout

The output shows the points evaluated using Gaussian quadrature (using a weight of 1, so using Legendre polynomials). The vertical bars are shaded to represent the relative weights of the points (darker = more weight). The error in the trapezoid, Simpson, and quadrature methods is both printed out and compared through a bar graph. The "Real" error is the error returned from scipy on the definite integral.

#  An increasing number of contours for z = f(x,y) are utilized surrounding a desired (x_0,y_0).
#  A limit can be shown to exist at (x_0,y_0) provided the point stays trapped between adjacent 
#  contour lines as the number of lines increases.  If the contours change wildly near the point,
#  then a limit does not exist.
#  Looking for two different paths to approach (x_0,y_0) that utilize a different selection of colors
