  2. Exponential integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_integral

    Definitions. For real non-zero values of x, the exponential integral Ei ( x) is defined as. The Risch algorithm shows that Ei is not an elementary function. The definition above can be used for positive values of x, but the integral has to be understood in terms of the Cauchy principal value due to the singularity of the integrand at zero. For ...

  3. WolframAlpha - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WolframAlpha

    WolframAlpha was free at launch, but later Wolfram Research attempted to monetize the service by launching an iOS application with a cost of $50, while the website itself was free. That plan was abandoned after criticism. On February 8, 2012, WolframAlpha Pro was released, offering users additional features for a monthly subscription fee.

  4. Tangent half-angle substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_half-angle...

    Advanced. Specialized. Miscellaneous. v. t. e. In integral calculus, the tangent half-angle substitution is a change of variables used for evaluating integrals, which converts a rational function of trigonometric functions of into an ordinary rational function of by setting . This is the one-dimensional stereographic projection of the unit ...

  5. Antiderivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiderivative

    The slope field of () = +, showing three of the infinitely many solutions that can be produced by varying the arbitrary constant c.. In calculus, an antiderivative, inverse derivative, primitive function, primitive integral or indefinite integral of a function f is a differentiable function F whose derivative is equal to the original function f.

  6. Risch algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risch_Algorithm

    v. t. e. In symbolic computation, the Risch algorithm is a method of indefinite integration used in some computer algebra systems to find antiderivatives. It is named after the American mathematician Robert Henry Risch, a specialist in computer algebra who developed it in 1968. The algorithm transforms the problem of integration into a problem ...

  7. Integral of inverse functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_of_inverse_functions

    Calculus. In mathematics, integrals of inverse functions can be computed by means of a formula that expresses the antiderivatives of the inverse of a continuous and invertible function , in terms of and an antiderivative of . This formula was published in 1905 by Charles-Ange Laisant. [1]

  8. Elliptic integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_integral

    For example, Wolfram's Mathematica software and Wolfram Alpha define the complete elliptic integral of the first kind in terms of the parameter m, instead of the elliptic modulus k. Incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind. The incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind F is defined as
