Suppose I want an expectation value of a harmonic oscillator wavefunction, then in what way will I write the Hermite polynomial of nth degree into the integral? I have a link of the representation, but don't know what to do with them? http://dlmf.nist.gov/18.3

ok If I have a integral like $$\int_{-\inf}^{\inf}{z*x*y}$$

then can I write them separately as:

$$\int_{-\inf}^{\inf}{z}*\int_{-\inf}^{\inf}{x}*\int_{-\inf}^{\inf}{y}$$
