There are several integrators in SymPy. The latter form is produced by ratint.
>>> from sympy.integrals.rationaltools import ratint >>> from sympy.abc import t >>> ratint(1/(4*(-t + 4)), t) -log(t - 4)/4 Kalevi Suominen On Monday, September 19, 2016 at 5:06:22 AM UTC+3, Raphael Timbó wrote: > > Since the images with the results are distorted: > > First result: > > -(1/4)*log(4*t - 16) > > Results given by the step-by=step solution on sympy gamma: > > -(1/4)*log(-t + 4) > > > > On Sunday, September 18, 2016 at 3:18:31 PM UTC-3, Raphael Timbó wrote: >> >> Hi, >> I was trying to use: >> integrate(Rational(1,4)*(1/(4-t))) >> >> This was returning: >> −14log(4t−16) >> >> I was not expecting this result...
