In [[numerical analysis]], '''numerical integration''' constitutes a broad family of algorithms for calculating the numerical value of a definite integral, and by extension, the term is also sometimes used to describe the numerical solution of differential equations.

This article focuses on calculation of definite integrals.

== Description ==

The term numerical quadrature (often abbreviated to quadrature) is more or less a synonym for numerical integration, especially as applied to one-dimensional integrals.

Some authors refer to numerical integration over more than one dimension as cubature; others take quadrature to include higher-dimensional integration.
