How To Compute The Integral
To compute the integral, we set n to its value and use the reduction formula to calculate the (n – 1) or (n – 2) integral. The higher index integral can be used to calculate lower index ones; the process is continued repeatedly until we reach a point where the function to be integrated can be computed, usually when its index is 0 or 1. Then we back-substitute the previous results until we have computed In.

Famous quotes containing the word integral:
“Make the most of your regrets; never smother your sorrow, but tend and cherish it till it come to have a separate and integral interest. To regret deeply is to live afresh.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
