int(sqrt(x), x);

Errors in symbolic integration

AXIOM Examples

1)

axiom
integrate(sin(x)+sqrt(1-x^3),x)
>> Error detected within library code: failed - cannot handle that integrand

int(sin(x)+sqrt(1-x^3),x);
reduce

2)

axiom
integrate(sqrt(1-log(sin(x)^2)),x)
>> Error detected within library code: integrate: implementation incomplete (constant residues)

int(sqrt(1-log(sin(x)^2)),x);
reduce

3)

axiom
integrate(sqrt(sin(1/x)),x)
>> Error detected within library code: integrate: implementation incomplete (constant residues)

That seems strange given the claims about the "completeness" of Axiom's integration algorithm! But to be fair, Maple also returns this integral unevaluated.

int(sqrt(sin(1/x)),x);
reduce

4)

axiom
integrate(sqrt(sin(x)),x)
LatexWiki Image(1)
Type: Union(Expression Integer,...)

int(sqrt(sin(x)),x);
reduce

For this Maple 9 gives the following result:

And Mathematica 4 gives:

axiom

There are no exposed library operations named int but there are 5 unexposed operations with that name. Use HyperDoc Browse or issue )display op int to learn more about the available operations.
Cannot find a definition or applicable library operation named int with argument type(s) Variable x Variable x
Perhaps you should use "@" to indicate the required return type, or "$" to specify which version of the function you need.

axiom
integrate(x,x)

Type: Polynomial Fraction Integer

axiom
axiomintegrate(x^6*exp(-x^2/2)/sqrt(%pi*2),x=%minusInfinity..%plusInfinity)
There are no library operations named axiomintegrate Use HyperDoc Browse or issue )what op axiomintegrate to learn if there is any operation containing " axiomintegrate " in its name.

integrate(exp(x)/x^2) --unknown, Thu, 25 Aug 2005 05:57:53 -0500 reply
Axiom does not perform the integration (while it perform the integration of exp(x)/x ), but the integration can be given in terms of Ei(x)

integrate(exp(x)/x^2,x) --> Ei(x)-exp(x)/x

int(sqrt(x), x)

int(sqrt(x), x);
