Today we have a tough integral: not only is this a special integral (the sine integral Si(x)) but it also goes from 0 to infinity! Since this is a special… Read more Integral of sin(x)/x from 0 to infinity →
Today we have a tough integral: not only is this a special integral (the sine integral Si(x)), but it also goes from 0 to infinity! Because of the first characteristic,… Read more Integral of sin(x)/x from 0 to infinity | A satisfying solution →
The derivative of x is easy, it’s simply 1; the second derivative of x is the derivative of 1, which is 0; but what on earth is the half derivative… Read more Half derivative of x →
What it takes to be able to calculate any derivative is to know the rules of differentiation and the fundamental derivatives, the ones you have to memorize. If you are… Read more Fundamental derivatives →
In the previous lesson we talked about differentiation in general; just as a reminder, it is a word that means “computation of a derivative”, the same way multiplication means “computation… Read more The rules of differentiation →
In my first lesson I talked about integration: in a nutshell, it’s the mathematical operation used to calculate the area under a curve of function f(x). The integral of a… Read more What’s differentiation? →
