disk01_integrals


disk01_integrals, an Octave code which returns the exact value of the integral of any monomial over the interior of the unit disk in 2D.

The interior of the unit disk in 2D is defined by

        x^2 + y^2 <= 1
      

The integrands are all of the form

        f(x,y) = x^e1 * y^e2
      
where the exponents are nonnegative integers. If any exponent is an odd integer, the integral will be zero. Thus, the "interesting" results occur when all exponents are even.
