    Integration Ti-89
AI Thread Summary
The TI-89 calculator's integral feature is providing numerical answers even when no bounds are specified, leading to confusion when attempting to compute antiderivatives. Users are seeking a solution to obtain standard antiderivative results instead of numerical outputs. A suggested fix involves clearing the variable set in the calculator, similar to the delvar function on the TI-92, which may resolve the issue and allow for proper symbolic integration.

When I use the integral feature, my TI-89 is giving a numerical answer even if I'm not selecting any bounds for integration (i.e., if I'm just taking the antiderivative). It's as if there's an implicit integral or something. How do I change this so I can just get a normal antiderivative?

For example, if the function is x (or whatever) and I do int[x,x] it gives 1/32 instead of 1/2 x^2

You set x to 1/4, you need to clear that variable (on my TI92 that's delvar x).

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
