Hello!
I'm trying to calculate this integral:
Integrate [Exp[-I a *y] Exp[I*Sin[y]] Exp[-y*Sign[y]], {y, -Infinity, Infinity}] , where "a" - constant that i'll define later.
So the result of the calculation acсording to Mathematica is the same expression : Exp[-I a *y] Exp[I*Sin[y]]...

Integrate using partial fractions (arctan x) / ((x+1)(x^2+1))?
My attempt:
(arctan x) / ((x+1)(x^2+1)) = A/(x+1) + (Bx+C)/(x^2+1)
arctan x = A(x^2+1) + (Bx+C)(x+1)
when x= -1, A= -pi/8
so plugging in -pi/8 for B makes:
x= tan[ (B-(pi/8))x^2 + (B+C)x + (C-(pi/8)) ]
and when x=0, C=...

Why are they called "differentiate" & "integrate"?
I was wondering why. When we differentiate, don't we result in an equation that describes the slopes of many other equations ( + C ) ? So, we'd be "integrating" many equations, different from each other by C, into a single description...
