    The integral

    𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑚 𝑥 𝑐𝑜𝑠 𝑛 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 (1)
    0
    in which m and n are integers  0, arises over and over again in
    elementary applications. Fortunately, the integral (1) can be
    evaluated simply, with a formula which is easy to remember in words,
    though bulky looking in symbols. Until it ends in 2 or 1

    applying Wallis’ formula, for m, n  0, is less than one, replace that
    product by unity.
