The importance of numerical integration may be appreciated by noting how frequently the formulation of problems in applied analysis involves derivatives. It is then natural to anticipate that the solutions of such problems will involve integrals. For most integrals no representation in terms of elementary functions is possible, and approximation becomes necessary.
As with any approximate method, the utility of polynomial interpolation cannot be stretched too far. In this paper we shall quantify the errors that can occur in polynomial interpolation and develop techniques to calculate such errors.
