Hello,
I'm trying to perform an integration on a function that contains a sum.
Similarly I'm hoping whatever acts as a fix will be good enough to aid in
a 2nd case as well but I've already put in a work-around for that
situation.
My code example is here:
watermelon=c(0,1,2,3)
w<-function(x){
sum(sin(x-watermelon))}
integrate(function(x){w(x)},0,2)
integrate(function(x){sin(x)+sin(x-1)+sin(x-2)+sin(x-3)},0,2)
the first integral gives an error... the 2nd is what I should get for an
answer for the first. Is there a way to get this to work the way that I
desire?
Yes.
Do as you were asked:
*) Read the Posting Guide
Note this bit:
Do your homework before posting ...
* Read the online help for relevant functions (type
?functionname,
*) Then read the documentation for 'integrate'
Note this bit:
f must accept a vector of inputs and produce a vector
of function evaluations at those points. The Vectorize
function may be helpful to convert f to this form.
You may find the functions 'outer' and 'rowSums' to be helpful in crafting
a version of 'f' that produces vectorized output in this case.
HTH,

Any help is appreciated.
Sincerely,
