Re: [Help-gsl] Looking for good codes for 2D numerical integrals...

[Michael]

I did read the C book. But I didn't find anything relevant to my
headache problem. I am doing a literature survey to do a comparative
study of good 2D integration codes.

Could anybody name a list of good algorithms? I've met enough
numerical instabilities and difficulties.

Something in my mind are Sparse Grids, Quasi Monte Carlo,etc. based 2D
integrations.

Can you come up with more?

Thanks!
