Hello, I have two data vectors and would like to integrate their product from zero to infinity. Is it even possible and how?
Regards, Sergey

That's an impressive machine that has enough memory to store an infinitely long vector. Can you clarify exactly what you have? Vectors, functions, etc?

I have two vectors that represents Rayliegh distribution coefficients and actual power output of a wind turbine. In order to compute the average power output, those two components needs to be multiplied by each other and result integrated. But the power output is a function of wind speed. It means that I need to integrate from 0 to my mean wind value at the given height.

If you had two functions you could create another function that was the multiple of the others and then integrate that:
h = @(x) f(x) .* g(x)
integral(h, 0, inf)
But if you have data vectors then they must be finite vectors and it would not seem to make sense to integrate a finite vector to infinity. Please expand on your meaning about the vectors?

I agree. I just was not sure that I need to integrate from zero to inf. Those to vectors represents Rayliegh distribution coefficients and actual power output of a wind turbine.
