Section 14: Numerical Integration 195
In Run mode:
2.
Key the lower limit of integration (a) into the X-register, then press
v to lift it into the Y-register.
3.
Key the upper limit of integration (b) in to the X-register.
4.
Press ´ f followed by the label of your subroutine.
Example: Certain problems in physics and engineering require calculating
Bessel functions. The Bessel function of the first kind of order 0 can be
expressed as


In Program mode, key in the following subroutine to evaluate the function
f(θ) = cos (sin θ).

Now, in Run mode key the lower limit of integration into the Y-register and
the upper limit into the X-register. For this particular problem, you also
need to specify Radians mode for the trigonometric functions.
