I have been playing with double and tripLE integration using the Monte Carlo method and with nested Simpson 1/3 rules using Excel VBA. The Monte Carlo method is very easy to program. Both methods work well, with the nested Simpson method performing better than the Monte Carlo for the same number of function calls.
Out of curiosity, I powered up my TI Nspire CX CAS (the newest version) and tried to perform double and triple integrations. To my surprised, the machine gave me the correct answer in both cases, instead of complaining that it could only do single integration! Very impressive TI! Sorry 15C, you no can do!!!
