My Favorite Integrals (part 1): Integrating x^x

[@MajorHurricane]

9:57 still watching lol, these taylor series sound fun to learn in math 126... x^x is just such a fascinating function to do stuff with!

[@Dr.LovelessTeachesMath]

Lovely, the start of Taylor series (error bounds) in Math 126 is a bit dry, but things pick up by the end. Unfortunately you don't get to do very many examples that I would call "fun", but I hope by making a few videos like this it will make it easier for you to enjoy that part of Math 126.

dude, just say that is the feyrman's method

[@Dr.LovelessTeachesMath]

What is the feyrman's method? Curious. If I'm using any method for anything that would be interesting that would be surprising, ha. I suspect that anything I'm reporting on has likely already been done, I am not an active researcher only reporting on fun things from 20 years of teaching to share with my students and family. So this channel is really only a release for me, a chance to do something other than worry about grades and teaching (I teach 1200+ students a year and don't get to do research). So any method that I overlap with is purely by accident.

@ emm, Isa method that we use when nothing of calc. 2 methods works Feyrman born May 11, 1918, New York, New York, U.S.-died February 15, 1988 Os Angles California) is an old method btw

And thanks for teaching maths, people needs people like you (Bc most people think that this is extremely difficult) , but I don’t think so

[@bad.D]

you mean Feynman as in Richard Feynman, one of the greatest physicists of the 20th century
