code: def simps(y, x=None, dx=1, axis=-1, even="avg"):
      """
      Integrate y(x) using samples along the given axis and the composite
      Simpson's rule.  If x is None, spacing of dx is assumed.
  
      If there are an even number of samples, N, then there are an odd
      number of intervals (N-1), but Simpson's rule requires an even number
      of intervals.  The parameter 'even' controls how this is handled.
  
      Parameters
      ----------
      y : array_like
          Array to be integrated.
      x : array_like, optional
          If given, the points at which `y` is sampled.
      dx : int, optional
          Spacing of integration points along axis of `y`. Only used when
          `x` is None. Default is 1.
      axis : int, optional
          Axis along which to integrate. Default is the last axis.
      even : str {'avg', 'first', 'last'}, optional
          'avg' : Average two results:1) use the first N-2 intervals with
                    a trapezoidal rule on the last interval and 2) use the last
                    N-2 intervals with a trapezoidal rule on the first interval.
  
          'first' : Use Simpson's rule for the first N-2 intervals with
                  a trapezoidal rule on the last interval.
  
          'last' : Use Simpson's rule for the last N-2 intervals with a
                 trapezoidal rule on the first interval.

      Notes
      -----
      For an odd number of samples that are equally spaced the result is
      exact if the function is a polynomial of order 3 or less.  If
      the samples are not equally spaced, then the result is exact only
      if the function is a polynomial of order 2 or less.

      --------
      >>> from scipy import integrate
      >>> x = np.arange(0, 10)
      >>> y = np.arange(0, 10)
  
      >>> integrate.simps(y, x)

      >>> y = np.power(x, 3)
      >>> integrate.simps(y, x)
      1642.5
      >>> integrate.quad(lambda x: x**3, 0, 9)[0]

      >>> integrate.simps(y, x, even='first')
