It appears that there is more use for the current form than I have come across with my adventures in positive-definite quantities. Is there room for a keyword e.g., unsorted ( so that the call is trapz(y, x=None, dx = 1.0, axis=-1, unsorted=False) where if unsorted is set to True, the data is automatically sorted before integration?
I think a numerical integral routine should only return an approximation to the integral. If you sort the data the trapz function is no longer returning an approximation to the integral.
