Hi all,

This question may be silly but I've come across with erf function while performing a symbolic integration of a complicated math expression. i guess it refers an error function that can be cumulated during the integration process but does it mean that I can ignore the terms affiliated with erf function. for instance

= a*x*bla bla + erf(xxxxxxxxx)

does it mean that i can ignore the second term at RHS?

thank you very much in advance

ps: in MATLAB by the way

I really doubt it. Did you wiki ERF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_function)?

Oh my bad. Thank you very much. I just thought it's a custom MATLAB function.
Thank you Integral. :)
