- Gauss-Legendre (shifted) quadrature. - Compute the sample points and weights for Gauss-Legendre quadrature. The sample points are the roots of the nth degree shifted Legendre polynomial \(P^*_n(x)\). These sample points and weights correctly integrate polynomials of degree \(2n - 1\) or less over the interval \([0, 1]\) with weight function \(w(x) = 1.0\). See 2.2.11 in [AS] for details. - Parameters:
- nint
- quadrature order 
- mubool, optional
- If True, return the sum of the weights, optional. 
 
- Returns:
- xndarray
- Sample points 
- wndarray
- Weights 
- mufloat
- Sum of the weights
