In calculus, an
antiderivative, primitive, or indefinite integral of a function f is a function F whose derivative is equal to f,
i.e., F ′ = f. The process of solving for antiderivatives is antidifferentiation (or indefinite integration).
Antiderivatives are related to definite integrals through the fundamental theorem of calculus: the definite
integral of a function over an interval is equal to the difference between the values of an antiderivative
evaluated at the endpoints of the interval. - Wikipedia
When this page was first created back in the late 1990s, it was nearly impossible to locate tables of
integrals (both definite and indefinite) on the Internet. Now, they are everywhere; being one of the first doesn't
count for much on the Web.
RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while typing up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
