integral from 0 to y of e^{-y^2}

\int_{0}^{y} e^{- y^{2}} d y

\frac{π}{2} erf (y)

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{y} e^{- y^{2}} d y

Use the nonelementary integral:

\int e^{- y^{2}} d y = \frac{π}{2} erf (y)

= [\frac{π}{2} erf (y)]_{0}^{y}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{π}{2} erf (y)

= \frac{π}{2} erf (y)
