Hi,
I work with Maxima version 5.18.1, front end: wxMaxima 0.8.2.
I find that Maxima handles with great ease extremely tedious and messy
integrals like integrate(sqrt(tan(x)),x) and integrate(tan(x)^(1/3),x).
But I find that it stumbles on this integral:
integrate(1/((x-1)^(6/5)*(x+3)^(4/5)),x)
though the answer is a fairly easy one:
-(5/4) *(x + 3)^(1/5)/(x - 1)^(1/5).
Any suggestions on how I could get Maxima to evaluate it? Is there some
package to be loaded?
Thanks!
