Integrate the following: \( \large \frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \Pi}}e^{- \frac{u^2}{2}} \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It doesn't have an elementary anti-derivative.

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

hmmm so what wld the answer be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the Maclaurin series and then integrate that, if you want to make approximations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It looks like some sort of probability function.

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

Nahhhh Forget it. Its stats so I will normalize it

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

Thanks :)

hartnn (hartnn):

you'll need to know gamma functions to evaluate that integral...

hartnn (hartnn):

that too if you have limits from 0 to infinity...that is definite integration

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

Actually its a normal distribution so I didnt realize but I had a table in the back of my book giving me the exact values :)
