Purpose : You have one function f(x) which takes float integer and returns
float you have to integrate the function in limits a to b.
The approximation proposed by Thomas Simpson in 1743 is one way to calculate
integration.
( read article : https://cp-algorithms.com/num_methods/simpson-integration.html )
simpson_integration() takes function,lower_limit=a,upper_limit=b,precision and
returns the integration of function in given limit.

Summary of Simpson Approximation :
By simpsons integration :
1. integration of fxdx with limit a to b is =
f(x0) + 4 * f(x1) + 2 * f(x2) + 4 * f(x3) + 2 * f(x4)..... + f(xn)
where x0 = a
xi = a + i * h
xn = b

"""
Args:
function : the function which's integration is desired
a : the lower limit of integration
b : upper limit of integration
precision : precision of the result,error required default is 4
Returns:
result : the value of the approximated integration of function in range a to b
Raises:
AssertionError: function is not callable
AssertionError: a is not float or integer
AssertionError: function should return float or integer
AssertionError: b is not float or integer
AssertionError: precision is not positive integer
