@mur2501 Looks a lot like my notebook right now.
@freemo
what kind of integrals you deal with?
@mur2501 the integrals themselves arent all that fancy... the issue is that i have a particularly complex graph that has speicifc properties but can be represented by dozens of different actual equations... i need to find an equation that gives the intended graph with the desired properties but is actually integratable (no taylor series or numerical integration).... Most forms I try are not integratable
The only difficult part here is that im kinda working in reverse. Instead of given an equation and asked to integrate it I know what sort of result I need and need to figure out the equation.
@mur2501 the reason i need closed/form symbolic integration is because the integral will be used to compute real world costs. As such precision will have to be high enough that it can require quite a few terms to represent it accurately enough.
On top of that the problem is computationally sensative. That is, I need a solution where every single calculation has a significant cost to it. So a symbolic/closed form representation will be much easier to compute numerical values for than a large summation operation.
@freemo
Yes I know but I just don't understand your fixture on symbolic integration
