// Class description:
//
// Roots of ortogonal polynoms and corresponding weights are calculated based on
// iteration method (by bisection Newton algorithm). Constant values for initial
// approximations were derived from the book: M. Abramowitz, I. Stegun, Handbook
// of mathematical functions, DOVER Publications INC, New York 1965 ; chapters 9,
// 10, and 22 .

// Constructor for Gauss-Hermite quadrature method . The function GaussHermite
// should be called then

// G4GaussHermiteQ( function pFunction, G4int nHermite  )

//
// Gauss-Hermite method for integration of std::exp(-x*x)*nFunction(x) from minus infinity
// to plus infinity .
