    Wallis in 1655 developed a pre-calculus interpolation technique to estimate values of integrals by considering families of curves, and determining exact values for some curves, thus obtaining numerical bounds for other curves. Briefly mentioned are earlier work by Alhazen on polynomials, and estimates for \(\pi\) in ancient Greece, China, and India.
