Which?(I am currently learning calculus)

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No elementary integrals is what you should search, but here's some examples

e^e^x

e^-x^2

1/ln(x)

Sin(x^2 ) or cos(x^2 )

They do have antiderivatives, you just cannot elementarily compute them. Non-exact differential forms, however..

Well, anything over a non-continuous x for example off the top of my head (and, yes for well-defined forms you can do the integral), still I have no idea what the cartoonist is on about and haven't heard 'anti-derivative' for a donkey's age, guess it's poorly defined grade school stuff.

I am so happy I never need to do calculus again
