#math
<adamjon858> if that doesn't work I should try integratin by parts...
<adamjon858> There's some sort of order to isn't there...my teacher said something about an acryonym...LIATE I think..
<cyclicFifths> really, the more problems you do, the more intuition you develop on when to use what method
<adamjon858> No idea what she meant though
<adamjon858> That's helpful...too bad I waited till the night before to study for the test
<cyclicFifths> it's hard to do that with math :)
<asphyxia> I always pull that one of too
<cyclicFifths> good luck though :)
<adamjon858> Someone needs to make an anti procrastination drug
<adamjon858> She's pretty lenient
<cyclicFifths> lol, it's called ritalin
<adamjon858> I'm just afraid of what I'm going to do for the BC test
<verbose> yes, but in the long run you hurt yourself
<EdBoy> What's all this about ritalin?
<adamjon858> verbose: very very true
<verbose> you should know integration pretty well if you want to have a good foundation in math
<cyclicFifths> adamjon858's said something about wanting an anti procrastination drug
<cyclicFifths> not that i'm promoting it
<cyclicFifths> i'm not
<asphyxia> verbose: Actually, $ tan(ln(x))dx is not really integrable
<asphyxia> or, you cant really integrate it
<asphyxia> by use of 'normal' expressions
<asphyxia> maple says its -I*x+x*LerchPhi(-x^2*I, 1, -(1/2)*I)
<adamjon858> yeh...since you don't know what has the derivative of tan
<asphyxia> Where I is the complex i
<adamjon858> no idea what that was
<asphyxia> ehm? you can derive tan if you want to..
<asphyxia> me neither...
<adamjon858> sorry that was wierded wrong
<adamjon858> I meant what has the derivative of tan
<adamjon858> you can't do that can you
<adamjon858> you have to use sin(x)/cos(x) and do that if your integrating
<slava> sure you can.
<adamjon858> Since you can't really integrate tan
<asphyxia> maple is also kind of like a dictionary. If you need to find weird expressions, just type something complex in and try to integrate
<adamjon858> hrm?
<slava> you can integrate tan
<Kasadkad> The integral of tan(x) is log(|sec(x)|)
<adamjon858> that's a bit beyond me right now
<adamjon858> I'll stick with letting tan resolve to sin(x)/cos(x)
<asphyxia> it's a bit beyond most people I think
<Kasadkad> adamjon858: how so?
<adamjon858> never did get logs
<Kasadkad> Ah
<adamjon858> idk, It's not in my calc book
<Kasadkad> You should probably get logs if you're in calculus
<Kasadkad> You sure it's not?
<Kasadkad> I bet it is
<adamjon858> either that or I'm not up to that point yet
