I decided to see what advances had been made in the last 10 or so years. Since then, Albert Rich used Mathematica to create the Rule-based Integrator (Rubi), which uses over 6,700 rules.įast forward to 2020 and I hadn’t looked at integrals for a decade. The step-by-step integrator I wrote used around 350 rules and could integrate more than 99% of integrals in calculus textbooks. SAINT could solve “symbolic integration problems approximately at the level of a good college freshman and, in fact, uses many of the same methods (including heuristics) used by a freshman”. My step-by-step integrator is still computing many integrals, some of which I have most likely forgotten how to do myself.Īs an aside, the idea of using rule-based programming to compute indefinite integrals dates back to 1961, with the Symbolic Automatic Integrator (SAINT) by James Slagle at MIT. ![]() Soon after, I was offered a job and ended up working for Wolfram for several years, predominantly on Wolfram|Alpha. After spending far too many late nights entering integration techniques as pattern-matching rules into Mathematica, I had the code at a reasonable state and I sent it to Wolfram Research for possible inclusion in Mathematica. ![]()
