Summary
Due to a theorem of Peano, the remainder term of Gregory's quadrature formula may be expressed by means of a polynomial spline-function. An explicite representation of this spline-function is given by a direct method, which does not make use of Peano's theorem. As an application the remainder term obtained is developed in terms of boundary derivations of the integrand, which leads to a general quadrature formula containing the Gregory formula and the Euler-MacLaurin summation formula as special cases.
