Numerical integration/Adaptive Simpson's method is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

Lychee (1969)'s Modified Adaptive Simpson's method (doi:10.1145/321526.321537) is a numerical quadrature method that recursively bisects the interval until the precision is high enough.
