I like writing integrals symbolically instead of using Integrate[]. I suddenly seem to not be able to do this and am confused. I type \[Esc] int \[Esc]
then \[Ctrl] + _
for my lower bound, and online it says use \[Ctrl] + %
for the upper bound, but nothing happens. I've also tried using \[Ctrl] + ^
which here says it is a superscript, and that gets me somewhere. However, I get a syntax error.
So for the \[Ctrl] + ^
case, I'm typing \[Esc]int\[Esc]\[Ctrl]+_0\[rightarrow]\[Ctrl]+^1 2 \[Esc]dd\[Esc]x
and I get the syntax error
Syntax::sntxi: Incomplete expression; more input is needed .
I've also tried putting parenthesis around the integrand, but it doesn't help. On the screen it looks fine:
So why doesn't the \[Ctrl] + %
do anything? And ultimately, how do I get this symbolic integral to evaluate? Thanks for the help.
\[Ctrl] + %
for upper bound, it works for me (M10.1, Windows 8.1).\[Ctrl] + ^
is a superscript, it's an index. $\endgroup$\[Esc] int \[Esc] (\[Ctrl] + -) 0 (\[Ctrl] + 5) x \[RightArrow] Sin[y] \[Esc] dd \[Esc] y (\[Shift] + \[Return])
returned the expected1 - Cos[x]
(M10.0.1 Win7x64). Standard US keyboard. $\endgroup$\[Ctrl]+%
literally nothing happens. I have typed these several times in the past and have no issues. Even when I run old notebooks I see this formatting and it runs fine. $\endgroup$
