HP Forums - [Bug] Calculus calculation in xcas

(i) calculating indefinite integrals

(1)
Xcas can calculate this

Code:

int(x^-n,x)

But can't calculate this

Code:

int(1/x^n,x)

(2)
Multiple integral questions in this article

(ii) In terms of derivative
(1)

Code:

tcollect(laplacian(f(r*cos(theta)*cos(beta),r*cos(theta)*sin(beta),r*sin(theta))​,[r,beta,theta]))

(2)

Code:

zeros(diff(f(x,y,z(x,y)),[x,y]),diff(z(x,y),[x,y]))

thank you parisse!

Code:

int(e^x*sin(x)^2/(1+sin(x)+cos(x))^2,x)

Xcas can't solve
Wolfram alpha

Seems to work on okay on my Prime virtual and hardware calculators as well as xcas on the computer. It's pretty messy till you use simplify, but it works.

For what it's worth, the TI Nspire can't solve it either!

Select more complex indefinite points and test xcas or hp prime

Code:

normal(([int(1/(x^3+x+1), x), 

int(sin(a*x)*sin(b*x)*sin(c*x), x), 

int((x+x^(1/2)+1)^(1/2), x), 

int(exp(-i*x)/cosh(x)^3, x), 

int(arctan(x)*ln((x^2+1)*(1/2))/(x+1), x), 

int(ln(2*sin((1/2)*x))^2, x), 

int(exp(a*x^n), x), 

int(x^2/cos(x), x), 

int(x*sin(x)*cos(x^2), x), 

int(cos(sin(x)^2), x), 

int(max(sin(x), cos(x)), x),

 int(1/(sin(x)*sqrt(1+cos(x))), x), 

int(sqrt(-x^2+1)*arcsin(x), x), 

int(arcsin(sqrt(x))/sqrt(x*(1-x)), x), 

int(arccos(x)/(-x^2+1)^(3/2), x), 

int(arcsin(x)*(x^2+1)/(x^2*sqrt(-x^2+1)), x),

 int(1/((x-1)^4*sqrt(1/x)), x), 

int(x^3/sqrt(-x^2+2*x+1), x),

 int(sqrt(x*(x+1))/(sqrt(x)+sqrt(x+1)), x), 

int(1/(1+sqrt(-x^2-2*x+1)), x), 

int(1/(x+sqrt(x^2+x+1)), x), 

int(sqrt(x^2+x+1)/(x+1), x), 

int(sqrt(x/(1+x*sqrt(x))), x),

 int(x/sqrt(1+2^x), x), 

int(2^x/sqrt(1+3^x), x), 

int(sqrt(1+4*x+sqrt(x)), x), 

int(arctan(x)*ln((x^2+1)*(1/2))/(x+1), x), 

int(ln(2*sin((1/2)*x))^2, x), 

int(ln(x+1)/(x^2+1), x),

 int(ln(1/2+(1/2)*sqrt(1+4*x))/x, x), 

int(x*ln(x/(1-x))/sqrt(-x^2+1), x), 

int(1/((x^2+a)*(x^2+b)), x), 

int(1/(x^6+x^3+2), x), 

int((x-sin(x))/((pi^2+x^2)*x^3), x), 

int(1/(x^4+x^2+x+1))]))

Actually, the Prime is able to find antiderivatives for some of these, but others not. Of the ones for which it could not, I tried a few on WolframAlpha and it also failed to find the antiderivatives. I didn't bother checking them all. Are there any of these that you listed that another CAS solves but Prime does not? Some functions simply don't have antiderivatives that can be expressed in closed form.

You can't blame the Prime/xcas for not finding something that's not there.

[suggestion] supports region integration and Boolean functions
For example, to calculate the area of a circle, we can do this

Code:

int(int(when(x^2+y^2<=r^2,1,0),x,-r,r),y,-r,r)

but not support

This is just testing, not comparing, because these examples are complicated

The problem is not solved, there is a new fixed point problem

hello, every one.I am back again. The unhappy thing is that these bugs are still not solved, new firmware is coming out, I hope the new CAS version can solve these problems.
