Can I integrate using nested functions using quad?
显示 更早的评论
Hello,
What I'm trying to do is the following. Using a function
f (x) = x + alpha
where alpha=x^2, I'm trying to use the function quad to integrate f(x). The obvious way to do it is
quad(@(x)(x+x.^2),a,b).
Is there a way to integrate only writting alpha, instead of x^2, namely
quad(@(x)(x+alpha),a,b)
Apparently I can't do that, is there any other function that would allow me to do this, or how can I do this? It would be useful for me to do this, because the function I want to integrate is way more complicated than the one described above.
Thank you for your response.

You can do that!
You need to define ‘alpha’ as an anonymous function and refer to it as such in your code for ‘f’:
alpha = @(x) x.^2;
f = @(x) x + alpha(x);
a = 0;
b = 2;
int_f = quad(f, a, b);
