SciPy — Integration
Quad (single integral)
from scipy.integrate import quad
def f(x):
return x**2
result, error = quad(f, 0, 1)
print(f"Integral = {result:.4f}")
print(f"Error = {error:.2e}")
Definite integral
import numpy as np
# Integrate sin(x) from 0 to pi
result, _ = quad(np.sin, 0, np.pi)
print(f"Integral of sin(x) from 0 to pi = {result:.4f}")
Double integral
from scipy.integrate import dblquad
def f(y, x):
return x * y
result, error = dblquad(f, 0, 1, 0, 1)
print(f"Double integral = {result:.4f}")
Triple integral
from scipy.integrate import tplquad
def f(z, y, x):
return x * y * z
result, error = tplquad(f, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1)
print(f"Triple integral = {result:.4f}")
Numerical integration (fixed-sample)
from scipy.integrate import simps
import numpy as np
x = np.array([0, 1, 2, 3, 4])
y = np.array([0, 1, 4, 9, 16])
result = simps(y, x)
print(f"Simpson's rule = {result:.4f}")
ODE integration
from scipy.integrate import odeint
def model(y, t):
return -2 * y
y0 = 1
t = np.linspace(0, 5, 100)
solution = odeint(model, y0, t)
