Hi, everyoneHere is what I get with Mathematica 5.2 for Windows. The first answer depends on the values of the complex coefficients a and b. The second answer is restricted to a and b positive reals and a > b.
I have trouble in solving an integral problem. I couldn't get an
exact answer. Could anyone give me a hand?
\int_{0}^{2\pi} (a-bcos(u))^{3/2} du where a and b are
both constant.
Thanks in advance!
