You can't symbolical integrate a compiled function ! and you can't pass a symbol like y (without a value) to a compiled function where you declared the argument as Real > > when I try to use answer1 with > > jt3=q NIntegrate[v[x1, 50, 0.2] g3[0.2, x1, 50] partjt3[x1] > answer1[0.0, x1], {x1, 50, maxpl + dummyinfinity}, Method -> MonteCarlo, MaxPoints -> 10000]; > > v, g3, partjt3 are simple functions. > > As you can see, this is quite complicated.

Use NIntegrate[] instead of Integrate[]. There is no need to compile the argument of NIntegrate[] because Mathematica will do it by default. Regards Jens
