The possibility integration in Python without an equation, just an array-like file

[Johannes Schneider]

If you do not have a closed form for T(E) you cannot calculate the exact 
value of I(V).

Anyway. Assuming T is integrable you can approximate I(V).

1. Way to do:
interpolate T(E) by a polynomial P and integrate P. For this you need 
the equation (coefficients and exponents) of P. Integrating is easy 
after that.

2. other way:
Use Stair-functions: you can approximate the Value of IV() by the sum 
over T(E_i) * (E_{i+1} - E_i) s.t. E_0 = E_F-\frac{eV}{2} and E_n = 
E_F+\frac{eV}{2}.


3 one more way:
use a computer algebra system like sage.
