\title{Integrate a Polynomial}
\description{
Find the integral of a univariate polynomial.
}
\usage{
\method{integral}{polynomial}(expr, limits = NULL, ...)
}
\arguments{
\item{expr}{an object of class \code{"polynomial"}.}
\item{limits}{numeric vector of length 2 giving the integration
limits.}
\item{\dots}{further arguments to be passed to or from methods.}
}
\value{
If \code{limits} is not given, the integral of \code{p} from 0 to
\sQuote{x}'. Otherwise, the integral with the given integration
limits.
}

p <- poly.calc(1:5)
p
## -120 + 274*x - 225*x^2 + 85*x^3 - 15*x^4 + x^5
deriv(p)
## 274 - 450*x + 255*x^2 - 60*x^3 + 5*x^4
