Numerical sums, products and integrals. Here is a numerical approximation to . | |
In[1]:=
NSum[1/i^3, {i, 1, Infinity}]
|
Out[1]=
|
|
| NIntegrate can handle singularities at the end points of the integration region. | |
In[2]:=
NIntegrate[1/Sqrt[x (1-x)], {x, 0, 1}]
|
Out[2]=
|
|
| You can do numerical integrals over infinite regions. | |
In[3]:=
NIntegrate[Exp[-x^2], {x, -Infinity, Infinity}]
|
Out[3]=
|
|
| Here is a double integral over a triangular domain. Note the order in which the variables are given. | |
