Re: A nice integral

where w is the complex number
.


and you can integrate normally.

NB: Although w is complex, you can integrate as if you were doing normal real integration.

Hi;


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.

Re: A nice integral

Hi Yusuke00

The first can also be solved using x^4+x^2+1=(x^2-x+1)(x^2+x+1) without complex numbers.

For the second one, I am getting

Hi;

Did you test that second answer?

f is integrable because it is piecewise continuous (except at the right-hand end point), i.e. it is continuous over the subintervals [0, 1), [1, 2), and [2, 3). (It doesn’t matter if it’s not continuous at an end point.)

Re: A nice integral

Hi;

When you differentiate back, do you get the same function? I do not.

Re: A nice integral

Oh, sorry, I read it as 1/sqrt(...). That makes it different, sorry.
