Write a program to implement Simpson’s 3/8 rule.
The Simpson’s 3/8 rule was developed by Thomas Simpson. This method is used for performing numerical integrations. This method is generally used for numerical approximation of definite integrals. Here, parabolas are used to approximate each part of curve.
Simpson’s 3/8 formula :
\int_{a}^{b} f(x) dx     \frac{3h}{8}     [Tex](     [/Tex]F(a) + 3F (     [Tex]\frac{2a + b}{3} )     [/Tex]+ 3F(     [Tex]\frac{a + 2b}{3} )     [/Tex]+ F(b) )
Here, 
h is the interval size given by h = ( b – a ) / n 
n is number of intervals or interval limit
Examples : 
 

Input : lower_limit = 1, upper_limit = 10, 
        interval_limit = 10
Output : integration_result = 0.687927


Input : lower_limit = 1, upper_limit = 5, 
        interval_limit = 3
Output : integration_result = 0.605835
