Hello, Any Calc experts around? emacs -Q: M-x calc RET 0 RET a i x RET is a way to integrate 0 using Calc (with integration variable x in this case). Calc fails to solve it: The result Calc gives you is "integ(0, x)" - Calc leaves the integral unresolved, which is Calc's way to say "I can't solve this". This is definitely not a feature or a way to represent an integration constant - (info "(calc) Integration"): | Also, any indefinite integral should be considered to have an | arbitrary constant of integration added to it, although Calc does not | write an explicit constant of integration in its result. So what is going on? Other functions, including constants like 1 or a symbol work as expected. As far as I understand, Calc is internally perfectly able to solve this integral but at one place in the code the correct result is rejected because this case is so special that the authors forgot to make the code expect a result of such a simple form. This small change helps:
