I have a function expressed in integral form, where the integral cannot be made, y[t _ ]: = Integrate[Exp[Cos[s]]*Sin[t - s ], { s, 0, t } ]. Nevertheless, if I indicate Mathematica that draws, it does. Plot[y[t],{t,0,1}]. What happens, does it make the numerical integration ?. How does it make it, with what precision, what method? On the other hand, the function Derivative does not make it correctly, it simply derives the part from the function integrating that depends on the variable t although by hand it can be obtained without difficulty, (and even with Mathematica, expanding previously the function Sin[t-s]). Why? Thanks Higinio Ramos
