$$\int\limits_{0}^{1} x \log{\left(x - 1 \right)} 1\, dx$$
Integral(x*log(x - 1*1)*1, (x, 0, 1))
Detail solution
  1. Use integration by parts:

    Let and let .

    Then .

    To find :

    1. The integral of is when :

    Now evaluate the sub-integral.

  2. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

    1. Rewrite the integrand:

    2. Integrate term-by-term:

      1. The integral of is when :

      1. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:

      1. Let .

        Then let and substitute :

        1. The integral of is .

        Now substitute back in:

      The result is:

    So, the result is:

  3. Now simplify:

  4. Add the constant of integration:


The answer is:
