It seems like it is lacking the functionality R's integrate has for handling infinite boundaries, but I suppose you could implement that yourself on the outside.
For what it's worth,
use integrate::adaptive_quadrature::simpson::adaptive_simpson_method;
use statrs::distribution::{Continuous, Normal};
fn dnorm(x: f64) -> f64 {
Normal::new(0.0, 1.0).unwrap().pdf(x)
}
fn main() {
let result = adaptive_simpson_method(dnorm, -100.0, 100.0, 1e-2, 1e-8);
println!("Result: {:?}", result);
}
prints Result: Ok(1.000000000053865)
It does seem to be a usability hazard that the function being integrated is defined as a fn, rather than a Fn, as you can't pass closures that capture variables, requiring the weird dnorm definition
