MATLAB How can I use MATLAB to solve double integrals?

[Moly]

Hi Everyone.

I would like to integrate the following using matlab:
\int_0^1 ~\int_0^x e^{-x^2} ~dy ~dx
looks pretty simple but don't know how to set up the embedded for loops for the integral with in the integral especially that the upper limit of the inner integral is x and not a number.
My actual assignment is much more complicated than this but i thought trying to work it out for a simpler function might help me with the more complex one.
Thanks for your help

the program that i put together is giving me the integral=24.8427 and the answer is actually 0.316... my program is copied below, what am i doing wrong:

x0=0; xt=1; xstep=11; dx=1/(xstep-1);
y0=0; yt=1; ystep=11; dy=1/(ystep-1);

sum2=0;
for i1=1:xstep
sum1=0;
y=(i1-1)*dy;
x2step=floor(y*xstep);
for i=1:xstep
if i>=x2step
sum1=sum1+dx*exp(-y^2)/2
%pause
end
x=(i-1)*dx;
end
sum2=sum2+sum1
end
sum3=sum2*dx

oh... forgot to say that I am using trapazoidal rule for the integration

Now, this is giving me the corrrect answer but not sure if i cheated in a way or not... what do you think:
close all
clear all

x0=0; xt=1; xstep=110; dx=1/(xstep-1);
y0=0; yt=1; ystep=110; dy=1/(ystep-1);

sum2=0;
for i1=1:ystep+1
sum1=0;
y=(i1-1)*dy;
x2step=floor(y/dx);
for i=1:xstep+1
if i<=x2step
sum1=sum1+dx*exp(-y^2);
end
x=(i-1)*dx;
end
sum2=sum2+sum1;
end
sum3=sum2*dy
