2.12 The Error Function

• We can improve our understanding of the solution.

• Immediately after the definition, several important properties of the error function follow.
• It is easy to show that erf is an odd function.

• The name of the variable of integration in a definite integral is unimportant.

• Go to polar coordinates.

• By using the book.

• The error function is used to solve the heat equation.

• The easiest way to prove this is directly.

• We will arrive at the same conclusion here.

• We wanted to get this result.

• Carry out the integration.
