On one method of numerical integration
By using the Lienhard interpolation method, the authors construct an interpolation curve passing through the points \(P_ j(x_ j,f(x_ j))\), (\(j=1,2,\dots,n+1\)), where \(f\in C[a,b]\) and \(x_ j=a+(j-1)h\), \(j=1,2,\dots,n+1\) and \(h=(b-a)/n\). The arcs \(P_ jP_{j+1}\) are parametrized by means of some given polynomials of third degree, depending on a parameter \(t\in [-1,1]\). They prove the uniform convergence of the sequence of Lienhard interpolants to the corresponding continuous function \(f\) on \([a,b]\). In the second part of the paper a numerical integration rule of functions based on the Lienhard interpolation method is derived. Numerous simple examples are given. The paper also contains two programs in BASIC, useful for constructing approximating Lienhard curves.
