Tag a release

[ararslan]

@stevengj Do you have any input on what should be done here before this is tagged and registered?

[stevengj]

The docs links seems to be broken. Latest docs work for me.

[ararslan]

Stable should be a 404 until a release is tagged, since Documenter only builds stable on tag commits. Latest works for me. Does it not for you?

[stevengj]

Since you're exporting gauss and kronrod, those functions need docstrings.

Also probably define

gauss(N::Integer) = gauss(Float64, N)
kronrod(N::Integer) = kronrod(Float64, N)

The README should probably link to https://github.com/ajt60gaibb/FastGaussQuadrature.jl for (non-adaptive) Gauss quadrature with more weight functions and for high orders N, since the routines here are O(N^2) whereas the ones in FastGaussQuadrature are O(N). On the other hand, the routines here support arbitrary precision, and include generation of the nested Gauss-Kronrod rules.

Should also grab the patches from JuliaLang/julia#19627

[stevengj]

Also link https://github.com/stevengj/Cubature.jl and https://github.com/giordano/Cuba.jl for people wanting multidimensional integration (or alternative 1d algorithms, e.g. Cubature has adaptive Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature).

[ararslan]

Should gauss and kronrod be exported? I export them here because they're exported from Base.QuadGK, but only quadgk ends up getting exported from Base.

[stevengj]

I think it makes sense to export them, since they are useful functions by themselves. Too specialized to export in Base, but in a QuadGK package they make sense.

Do you know of a better way to preserve the authorship information for the change in 19627 than downloading the diff as a patch and editing it by hand?

[stevengj]

Not unless @ajkeller34 wants to resubmit his PR to this repo.
