The Gaussian quadrature chooses more suitable points instead, so even a linear function approximates the function better (the black dashed line). As the integrand is the third-degree polynomial y(x) = 7x 3 – 8x 2 – 3x + 3, the 2-point Gaussian quadrature rule even returns an exact result.
Gauss–Legendre quadrature is optimal in a very narrow sense for computing integrals of a function f over [−1, 1], since no other quadrature rule integrates all degree 2n − 1 polynomials exactly when using n sample points. However, this measure of accuracy is not generally a very useful one---polynomials are very simple to integrate and ...
The Gauss–Legendre method based on s points has order 2s. [2] All Gauss–Legendre methods are A-stable. [3] In fact, one can show that the order of a collocation method corresponds to the order of the quadrature rule that one would get using the collocation points as weights.
Gauss–Legendre methods are implicit Runge–Kutta methods. More specifically, they are collocation methods based on the points of Gauss–Legendre quadrature. The Gauss–Legendre method based on s points has order 2s. [1] All Gauss–Legendre methods are A-stable. [2] The Gauss–Legendre method of order two is the implicit midpoint rule.

A popular example combines a 7-point Gauss rule with a 15-point Kronrod rule (Kahaner, Moler & Nash 1989, §5.5). Because the Gauss points are incorporated into the Kronrod points, a total of only 15 function evaluations are needed.
