SUMMARY
The integral \(\int \exp\left[x-\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{\sigma}\right] dx\) does have an analytical solution. According to user Daniel, the solution can be expressed as \(-\frac{\sqrt{b}}{2}e^{a+\frac{b}{4}} \sqrt{\pi} \ \mbox{erf}\left[\frac{b+2(a-x)}{2\sqrt{b}}\right] +C\). Users are encouraged to utilize the Mathematica integrator available on the Wolfram website for further exploration of this integral.
