Floor function error in Desmos? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

how do you type y=[[x]] in desmos?
Since the notation for lists in Desmos is [...], it thinks youโ€™re trying to put a list in a list. If you want to preserve the integer of a number, such as [[2.5]]=2, use the floor function, which is just floor(x). Similarly, there is ceil(x) which rounds up and round(x) which rounds to the neeest integer. Hope this helps! More on reddit.com

Verification:

$$\begin{align} \int_{1}^{\infty}\frac{\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\{x\}\right)^{[x]}}{[x]}\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\{x\}\right)\,dx &=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\int_0^1\frac{\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}x\right)^k}k\cos\left(\tfrac{\pi}{2}x\right)\,dx \\&=\frac2\pi\sum_{k=1}^\infty\left.\frac{\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}x\right)^{k+1}}{k(k+1)}\right|_0^1\\&=\frac2\pi\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{1}{k(k+1)}. \end{align}$$


Given the tortuous shape of the function and its angular points, plus the slow decay, it is more than likely that numerical evaluation of this improper integral is challenged.

You might ask Desmos to evaluate on a few $[k,k+1]$ intervals. (WA replies exact values.)

Let $$f(x)=\frac{\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\{x\}\right)^{[x]}}{[x]}\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\{x\}\right)$$ and use Mathematica with the following syntax

R[p_]:=NIntegrate[f[x], {x, 1, Infinity}, WorkingPrecision -> p]

There is no problem or warning. Nice but the result depends very much on the value of the working precision $$\left( \begin{array}{cc} p & R(p) \\ 10 & 0.6317221476 \\ 20 & 0.6300419923 \\ 30 & 0.6319526217 \\ 40 & 0.6321773132 \\ 50 & 0.6327733152 \\ 60 & 0.6319059416 \\ 70 & 0.6320912143 \\ 80 & 0.6317180264 \\ 90 & 0.6318379131 \\ 100 & 0.6329749100 \\ 200 & 0.6326666679 \\ 300 & 0.6322638105 \\ 400 & 0.6321032001 \\ 500 & 0.6321174712 \\ 600 & 0.6322364980 \\ 700 & 0.6322364980 \\ \end{array} \right)$$

Even when the result stabilizes, we are still far away from $\frac 2 \pi$
