I think this might be a faster method for making the plots. Use NDSolve to create an InterpolatingFunction for the plotted function. f[x_, n_:2, betaN_:121.643] := Sech[betaN*x^n]^2; Clear[F]; F[x_] = F[x] /. NDSolve[{Derivative[1][F][x] == f[x], F[-0.4] == 0}, F, {x, -0.4, 0.4}][[1,1]] InterpolatingFunction[{{-0.4, 0.4}}, "<>"][x] Plot[F[x], {x, -0.4, 0.4}, PlotStyle -> RGBColor[1, 0, 0]]; David Park djmp at earthlink.net http://home.earthlink.net/~djmp/ > From: BobHanlon at aol.com [mailto:BobHanlon at aol.com] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net > > > In a message dated 2001/8/17 3:45:32 AM, y.tesiram at pgrad.unimelb.edu.au > writes: > > >I would like to plot the integral of, > > > >(Sech[betaN * x^n])^2 , > > > >where beatN=121.643 and n=2 say.
