Forgive me.  Since "X" and "Y" are just placeholders for the actual variables, it's obviously not important if they were exchanged from normal practice in the discussion.  The important thing is whatever follows "of" in the construct is the integrand.
thanks,

Hi all,

I think "X" should be the independent variable and "Y", the dependent variable (appearing as the integrand).  I would then prefer "integral_over_X_of_Y" or "integral_of_Y_over_X" (although I wouldn't object if the consensus is that "wrt" should replace "over").  [I don't like "integral_wrt_Y_of_X" because that seems to say that X is the integrand.]

best,
Karl

Dear Alison   cc Steve, Paul

Sorry for slow response. I've read Steve's edited version and I agree with your and Steve's proposals. Thanks. Changing all the integral_of_X_wrt_Y to integration_wrt_Y_of_X will make them more readable, I think, and it's a
I meant integral_wrt_Y_of_X of course. Sorry.
