# Getting Started Guide for SciPy Users

Welcome to `scirs2-integrate`! This guide is designed for scientists and engineers familiar with SciPy's integration capabilities who want to leverage the power, performance, and memory safety of Rust.

## Quick Start: SciPy to scirs2-integrate Translation

### Basic Integration

**SciPy (Python):**
```python
from scipy.integrate import quad
result, error = quad(lambda x: x**2, 0, 1)
print(f"Result: {result}, Error: {error}")
```

**scirs2-integrate (Rust):**
```rust
use scirs2_integrate::quad::quad;

let result = quad(|x: f64| x * x, 0.0, 1.0, None).unwrap();
println!("Result: {}, Error: {}", result.value, result.error);
```

### Multi-dimensional Integration

**SciPy (Python):**
```python
from scipy.integrate import dblquad
result, error = dblquad(lambda y, x: x*y, 0, 1, 0, 1)
```

**scirs2-integrate (Rust):**
```rust
use scirs2_integrate::cubature::{nquad, Bound};
use ndarray::ArrayView1;

let result = nquad(
    |x: ArrayView1<f64>| x[0] * x[1],
    &[Bound::Finite(0.0, 1.0), Bound::Finite(0.0, 1.0)],
    None
).unwrap();
```

### ODE Solving

**SciPy (Python):**
```python
from scipy.integrate import solve_ivp
import numpy as np

def rhs(t, y):
    return [-y[0]]

sol = solve_ivp(rhs, [0, 1], [1.0], method='RK45')
```

**scirs2-integrate (Rust):**
```rust
use scirs2_integrate::ode::{solve_ivp, ODEMethod, ODEOptions};
use ndarray::{array, ArrayView1};

let result = solve_ivp(
    |_t: f64, y: ArrayView1<f64>| array![-y[0]],
    [0.0, 1.0],
    array![1.0],
    Some(ODEOptions::new().method(ODEMethod::RK45))
).unwrap();
```

## Installation and Setup

Add to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
scirs2-integrate = { version = "0.3.1", features = ["parallel", "simd"] }
ndarray = "0.16"
```

For optimal performance, enable these features:
- `parallel`: Multi-threaded execution
- `simd`: SIMD acceleration
- `autotuning`: Hardware-aware optimization

## Common Integration Patterns

### Pattern 1: Simple Function Integration

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::quad::quad;
use std::f64::consts::PI;

// Integrate sin(x) from 0 to π (exact result: 2)
let result = quad(|x: f64| x.sin(), 0.0, PI, None).unwrap();
assert!((result.value - 2.0).abs() < 1e-10);
```

### Pattern 2: Multi-dimensional Integration with Infinite Bounds

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::cubature::{nquad, Bound};
use ndarray::ArrayView1;

// Integrate exp(-x²-y²) over all R²
let result = nquad(
    |x: ArrayView1<f64>| (-x[0]*x[0] - x[1]*x[1]).exp(),
    &[Bound::Infinite, Bound::Infinite],
    None
).unwrap();
// Result should be approximately π
```

### Pattern 3: ODE System with Events

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::ode::{solve_ivp_with_events, EventSpec, EventDirection};
use ndarray::{array, ArrayView1};

// Bouncing ball with ground collision detection
let rhs = |_t: f64, y: ArrayView1<f64>| array![y[1], -9.81]; // [position, velocity]

let event = EventSpec::new(
    |_t: f64, y: ArrayView1<f64>| y[0], // height = 0
    EventDirection::Decreasing,
    false, // non-terminal
);

let result = solve_ivp_with_events(
    rhs,
    [0.0, 10.0],
    array![10.0, 0.0], // initial: height=10m, velocity=0
    &[event],
    None
).unwrap();
```

### Pattern 4: Stiff ODE Systems

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::ode::{solve_ivp, ODEMethod, ODEOptions};
use ndarray::{array, ArrayView1};

// Robertson chemical kinetics (stiff system)
let rhs = |_t: f64, y: ArrayView1<f64>| {
    let k1 = 0.04;
    let k2 = 3e7;
    let k3 = 1e4;
    
    array![
        -k1 * y[0] + k3 * y[1] * y[2],
        k1 * y[0] - k3 * y[1] * y[2] - k2 * y[1] * y[1],
        k2 * y[1] * y[1]
    ]
};

let result = solve_ivp(
    rhs,
    [0.0, 40.0],
    array![1.0, 0.0, 0.0],
    Some(ODEOptions::new().method(ODEMethod::BDF)) // Use BDF for stiff systems
).unwrap();
```

## Performance Optimization Tips

### 1. Choose the Right Method

- **Non-stiff ODEs**: Use RK45 (default) or RK23
- **Stiff ODEs**: Use BDF or Radau
- **Hamiltonian systems**: Use symplectic integrators
- **High precision**: Use DOP853

### 2. Enable Hardware Features

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::autotuning::AutoTuner;

// Automatically detect and optimize for your hardware
let tuner = AutoTuner::new();
let profile = tuner.create_profile();
// Apply optimized settings to your solver options
```

### 3. Use Parallel Processing

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::monte_carlo_parallel::parallel_monte_carlo;

// For high-dimensional integration
let result = parallel_monte_carlo(
    function,
    bounds,
    Some(ParallelMonteCarloOptions::new().workers(8))
).unwrap();
```

### 4. Memory Management

```rust
use scirs2_integrate::memory::MemoryPool;

// Pre-allocate memory for repeated computations
let pool = MemoryPool::new(1024); // 1KB buffer
// Use pool.get_buffer() in your computation loop
```

## Common Gotchas and Solutions

### 1. Function Signature Differences

**SciPy**: Functions take arrays and return arrays/scalars
**scirs2-integrate**: Uses `ArrayView1<f64>` for input, returns `Array1<f64>` for ODE RHS

### 2. Error Handling

**SciPy**: Uses exceptions and warning messages
**scirs2-integrate**: Uses `Result<T, IntegrateError>` pattern

```rust
match quad(function, a, b, None) {
    Ok(result) => println!("Success: {}", result.value),
    Err(e) => eprintln!("Integration failed: {}", e),
}
```

### 3. Options and Configuration

**SciPy**: Uses keyword arguments
**scirs2-integrate**: Uses builder pattern with options structs

```rust
let options = ODEOptions::new()
    .rtol(1e-8)
    .atol(1e-10)
    .method(ODEMethod::BDF)
    .max_step(0.1);
```

## Next Steps

1. **Explore Examples**: Check the `examples/` directory for comprehensive use cases
2. **Read Method-Specific Guides**: See `docs/` for detailed documentation
3. **Performance Benchmarking**: Use `cargo bench` to compare with your SciPy code
4. **Advanced Features**: Learn about DAE solving, PDE methods, and event detection
