Antidifferentiation (or indefinite integration) is a part of mathematics. It is the opposite of differentiation. It is integrating with no limits. The answer is an equation.
It is written as
with the integral sign that has no limits
the equation you are integrating
and the which means "with respect to ", which does not mean anything with simple integration.
Finding a simple antiderivative
To find the antiderivative of a simple equation
add 1 to the power , so is now
divide all this by the new power, so it is now
and a constant should be added.
This can be shown as:
When there is many terms, integrate each part on its own:
(This only works if the parts are being added or taken away.)
