| gptkbp:notableExample |
∫₀^∞ (sin x / x)(sin(x/3)/(x/3))(sin(x/5)/(x/5)) dx = π/2
∫₀^∞ (sin x / x)(sin(x/3)/(x/3))...(sin(x/15)/(x/15)) dx ≠ π/2 ∫₀^∞ (sin x / x) dx = π/2 ∫₀^∞ (sin x / x)(sin(x/3)/(x/3)) dx = π/2 |
| gptkbp:notableFor |
The first few integrals in the sequence evaluate to π/2, but the pattern breaks at the eighth integral
