Abstract
This paper investigates the role of higher order Newton-Cotes closed quadrature formula in the adaptive quadrature method approximating integrals. Boole's rule was specifically adopted as a result of its exceptional accuracy, and this was brought to bear in the numerical experiments that followed the derivation of error estimation scheme. The error estimation scheme facilitates the suitability of the method reported in this paper for situations where the exact solution is extremely difficult to arrive at.
