Symbolic Calculus

Derivative and Integral Calculator for Windows

Real reciprocal integration (introduced in 3.0)

integrate(1/x)

Returns ln(abs(x)) + C. This real antiderivative applies separately on x > 0 and x < 0; it is undefined at zero and the two intervals may have independent constants.

The supported finite definite path for 1/x and admitted nonzero literal multiples accepts same-side nonzero bounds. For 1/x, [1, 2] gives ln(2); [−2, −1] gives −ln(2). Reversing limits negates the result. Zero crossings or endpoints are refused; there is no principal-value fallback or general improper-integral engine. Differentiating abs remains unsupported.

SumWise supports common derivative and integral workflows in a focused Windows desktop app. You can calculate supported symbolic results, graph functions, and connect calculus commands to visual overlays.

What You Can Do

Typed commands and contextual next steps

Type a supported command below for direct calculus input. The contextual CAS actions offered for an eligible polynomial result have narrower eligibility: choose a next step, inspect the inserted command, then evaluate separately. They do not replace the broader documented typed interface.

To compare a function and its derivative, use an explicit range in the 2D graphing workflow. Surface derivatives use the separate restricted X/Y inspector.

Examples To Try

derivative(x^3) derivative(sin(x^2)) integrate(x^2) integrate(sin(x)) graph sin(x), derivative(sin(x)) from -6.28 to 6.28 graph_area(sin(x), 0, pi) from -1 to 4 tangent_line(x^2, x, 2) definite_integral(x^2, x, 0, 3) critical_points(x^2 - 4*x + 4, x) extrema(x^2 - 4*x + 4, x)

Honest Scope

SumWise includes scoped symbolic math for supported expressions and visual calculus helpers for supported polynomial workflows. Some advanced symbolic cases may not reduce or solve the same way a dedicated full symbolic algebra system would.

Differentiate a composite function

derivative(sin(x^2)) differentiates with respect to x, giving the mathematical result 2*x*cos(x^2) (equivalent factor ordering is possible). Check derivative syntax and limits and compare functions on a graph.
