2d polar integration

The 2d polar integral of a scalar function $f(r, \theta)$ is defined as:

$$ I(r_{max}) = \int_0^{r_{max}} \int_0^{2\pi} f(r, \theta) dr d\theta $$

Write a function integrate_polar(f, rmax) that performs this integral numerically using scipy.integrate.dblquad.

    tmin = 0
    tmax = (2*np.pi)
    rmin = lambda ra: 0
    r = lambda ra: rmax
    I, err = integrate.dblquad(inte, tmin, tmax, rmin, r)
    return I
