Here is a table of definite integrals. Many of these integrals has a number of parameters $a$, $b$, etc.
Find five of these integrals and perform the following steps:
integrand
function that computes the value of the integrand.integral_approx
funciton that uses scipy.integrate.quad
to peform the integral.integral_exact
function that computes the exact value of the integral.integral_approx
and integral_exact
for one set of parameters.Here is an example to show what your solutions should look like:
Here is the integral I am performing:
$$ I_1 = \int_0^\infty \frac{dx}{x^2 + a^2} = \frac{\pi}{2a} $$
