Hi Bob,
The trace does indeed show the problem, but I don't understand why the
Gaussian integral returns the error function evaluated at 3...
The other example that Len gave works ok -- the Integral[Sin[t^2],{t,
0,#1}] returns Sqrt[Pi/2]*FresnelS[Sqrt[2/Pi]*#1] as expected...
or a simpler case:
f[x_] := Integrate[Sin[t], {t, 0, x}]
f'[x] // Trace // InputForm
{{HoldForm[Derivative[1][f]], {HoldForm[f[#1]], HoldForm[Integrate[Sin
[t], {t, 0, #1}]], HoldForm[1 - Cos[#1]]}, HoldForm[Sin[#1] & ]},
HoldForm[(Sin[#1] & )[x]], HoldForm[Sin[x]]}
Do you (or anyone else here) know why Mathematica behaving this way
when given the Gaussian? Is it a known bug?
Simon
