Calculate the integral of f(x) over the finite interval
(a,b) using a general-purpose integration algorithm.
_integrateQAGS() is an integrator based on globally adaptive interval
subdivision in connection with extrapolation by the Epsilon
algorithm, which eliminates the effects of integrand singularities
of several types.
This is the most "intelligent" of the general-purpose finite-interval
integration methods, and the one that best handles bad integrand
behaviour. It is fairly expensive in terms of processing time, though,
so if that is an issue you may want to investigate the integrand
in more detail and try one or a combination of the more specialised
integration methods.
