Is your table of integrals complete?

102 Views Asked by At

A course in integral calculus consists largely of manipulations to transform an elementary integrand into something that has a known elementary antiderivative.

I'm wondering: can I be confident that, if this can be done for a given integrand, the known list of such tricks suffices to do it?

Or, on the other hand, is there a proof that the list can never be complete?
