Sine Integral.
Certain problems in communications theory (for example, pulse transmission
through idealized networks) require calculating an integral (sometimes called
the sine integral) of the form

Find Si (2).
Enter the expression that defines the integrand's function:
x
xsin
If the calculator attempted to evaluate this function at x = 0, the lower limit of
integration, an error (
#

) would result. However, the integration
algorithm normally does not evaluate functions at either limit of integration,
unless the endpoints of the interval of integration are extremely close together
or the number of sample points is extremely large.
