Composite Simpson Rule

 * @brief Implementation of the Composite Simpson Rule for the approximation
 *
 * @details The following is an implementation of the Composite Simpson Rule for
 * the approximation of definite integrals. More info -> wiki:
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson%27s_rule#Composite_Simpson's_rule
 *
 * The idea is to split the interval in an EVEN number N of intervals and use as
 * interpolation points the xi for which it applies that xi = x0 + i*h, where h
 * is a step defined as h = (b-a)/N where a and b are the first and last points
 * of the interval of the integration [a, b].
 *
 * We create a table of the xi and their corresponding f(xi) values and we
 * evaluate the integral by the formula: I = h/3 * {f(x0) + 4*f(x1) + 2*f(x2) +
 * ... + 2*f(xN-2) + 4*f(xN-1) + f(xN)}
 *
 * That means that the first and last indexed i f(xi) are multiplied by 1,
 * the odd indexed f(xi) by 4 and the even by 2.
 *
 * In this program there are 4 sample test functions f, g, k, l that are
 * evaluated in the same interval.
 *
 * Arguments can be passed as parameters from the command line argv[1] = N,
 * argv[2] = a, argv[3] = b
 *
 * N must be even number and a<b.
 *
 * In the end of the main() i compare the program's result with the one from
 * mathematical software with 2 decimal points margin.
 *
 * Add sample function by replacing one of the f, g, k, l and the assert
