Some time ago the irreplaceable Wolfram shared with us his calculator for triple integrals (I translated it a bit):
As you can see above, the calculator is very simple. In the first line, we enter the integrand and the order of integration. Click ‘Count’. We got the result 🙂

Markings can be a bit of a problem, e.g. 
within Wolfram’s integration limits, you would have to enter as ‘sqrt(4-x^2)’ – as in the example above. Take a look at the General Instructions for Typing Mathematical Formulas and if you have any problems, feel free to ask in the comments.
The calculator perfectly copes with calculations without cylindrical, spherical and numbers coordinates
, 
– in one word HONEY.
Example 1
Using a calculator, we will calculate the triple integral of the function
in a ball with an equation
.
After drawing, the integration area would look like this (unfortunately, the calculator will not help us with this):
With a calculator at hand, we don’t even enter spherical coordinates, we’re such lazy people. We describe the area of integration normally with x,y,z coordinates.
The projection of the ball onto the plane (say) xOy will be a circle:
In this circle the ‘x’s – let’s say again – let them vary within a constant range of -1 to 1.
Let the ‘y’s change within the limits of variables, we calculate them from the equation of the sphere taking a
:
or 
or 
And we have exactly the limits of integration for y. Integration limits for z are calculated (these will be surfaces) similarly from the equation:
or 
We do not care about cleaning at all, because we have a calculator.
To sum up:
We have an integrand function:
We have the area of integration:
Entering data into the calculator
We enter the integrand and the limits of integration into the calculator as follows:
The order of integration agrees with us (first after ‘z’, then after ‘y’, and finally in constants after ‘x’), so we only need to click on ‘Count’ and we have the result:
So we have the result: -4.18879, calculated neatly and without spherical coordinates.
Are you looking for college or high school math tutoring? Or maybe you need a course that will prepare you for the final exam?
We are "eTrapez" team. We teach mathematics in a clear, simple and very precise way - we will reach even the most knowledge-resistant students.
We have created video courses translated in an easy, understandable language, which can be downloaded to your computer, tablet or phone. You turn on the video, watch and listen, just like during private lessons. At any time of the day or night.
