[sage-support] finding special function antiderivatives

2014-04-11 Thread Greg Marks
A problem that arose in a recent calculus class involved practical methods for finding a numerical estimate of the arc length of the curve y = x^3 from (0,0) to (2,8). So, one might ask, could one use SAGE to perform this computation, say, to 1 decimal places? (By the way, I don't thi
