Gauss-Legendre Quadrature, 5 point rule
created by:
Thijs van den Berg
(http://www.sitmo.com)
The Gauss-Legendre quadrature is based on the use of an optimally chosen polynomial to approximate an integrand. It has an error of order 2n, and is exact for function f(x) that are polynomials order order 2n.
