# the function integral_f(x) approximates the integral of f(x) from 0 to x.
# integral2_f(x,y) approximates the integral from x to y.
# define f(x) to be any single variable function
#
# the integral is calculated as the sum of f(x_n)*delta
# do this x/delta times (from x down to 0)
#
f(x) = exp(-x**2)
delta = 0.2
# delta can be set to 0.025 for non-MSDOS machines

# integral_f(x) takes one variable, the upper limit. 0 is the lower limit.
# calculate the integral of function f(t) from 0 to x
integral_f(x) = (x>0)?integral1a(x):-integral1b(x)
integral1a(x) = (x<=0)?0:(integral1a(x-delta)+delta*f(x))

# integral2_f(x,y) takes two variables; x is the lower limit, and y the upper.
# claculate the integral of function f(t) from x to y
integral2_f(x,y) = (xy)?0:(integral2(x+delta,y)+delta*f(x))
