Express the indefinite integral as a power series.
This one doesn't have an antiderivative so you have to express first (exp(x)-1)/x as a Taylor series and then integrate term by term, and you have to make sure that the resultant series converges. You already know the series expansion of exp(x), so it's easy to find the series of exp(x)/x just...- adpc
