Re: Re: Re: Integration


Do you have some basis for doubting the correctness of the Risch 
algorithm?

(Risch's work is described in a long paper in Transactions of Amer. 
Math. Soc. and a shorter one in Bull. Amer. Math. Soc., both around 
1969-70.  It's been a while since I've looked at those; I did not check 
all the proofs myself.)
