Q: When should I use indefinite integration and definite integration? What is their major difference?
Indefinite integration ~ Anti-differentiation
It will give you a function.
額外提示:要驗算的話,你就將你計到的答案 D 一 D(differentiate 一次),看看是否得到題目原本的式子。
Definite integration ~ finding the area under a curve
It will give you a number only, NOT a function.
額外提示:要驗算的話,因為 definite integration 只是出一個數值,你可以把原本的式子,輸入計數機,叫計數機去做 definite integration,運算那個數值給你,看看是否和你的運算結果一樣。
例如,這部機有「微積分驗算」功能:
