Definite integrals
In a definite integral of a function, the resulting anti-derivative is evaluated
at the upper and lower limit of an interval (a,b) and the evaluated values
subtracted. Symbolically,
where f(x) = dF/dx.
The PREVAL(f(x),a,b) function of the CAS can simplify such calculation by
returning f(b)-f(a) with x being the CAS variable VX.
