Instead of trying to follow somebody else's presentation, just sit down and do the integrations yourself. That way, you will answer your own question, and will *understand it much better than if somebody else showed you how to do it*. I really believe that.

of course i always do my own derivation. my own derivation is -cosnπ/524nπ - 1/524nπ

There, I'm still as clueless I was before.

So, you claim that 524/1048 = 1? That is the only way you could end up with what you said.
