The Double Integral Calculator numerically evaluates ∫∫ f(x, y) dy dx over a rectangular region R = [a, b] × [c, d] — the volume between the surface z = f(x, y) and the xy-plane above that rectangle. Alongside the numeric result it shows the integral setup (the region and f(x, y) written out) and the method used, so the number isn't a black box.

It's built for multivariable calculus students checking a homework answer, and for anyone who needs a fast numeric double integral without deriving an antiderivative by hand.

How to use it

  1. Enter the function f(x, y) — standard math notation works: ^ for powers, * for multiplication, plus sqrt(), sin(), cos(), log(), and the other functions supported by mathjs's expression parser.
  2. Enter the outer bounds for x: x lower bound (a) and x upper bound (b).
  3. Enter the inner bounds for y: y lower bound (c) and y upper bound (d).
  4. Read ∫∫ f(x, y) dA for the numeric result, Integral Setup for the integral written out, and Details for the method and grid resolution used.

Results update automatically as you type. For example, f(x, y) = x*y over [0, 1] × [0, 1] returns 0.25.

How is the double integral computed?

The calculator uses composite 2D Simpson's rule (nested 1D Simpson's rule): the region is divided into a 101×101 grid of points (100 subdivisions per axis). For each of the 101 x-values, Simpson's rule integrates f(x, y) over y across the 101 y-values in [c, d]; those 101 inner results are then combined with Simpson's rule again over x. This is exact for any polynomial of total degree ≤ 3 in each variable, and accurate to several significant digits for smooth functions generally (trig, roots, logs) — no antiderivative is ever computed symbolically.

Only rectangular regions with constant numeric bounds are supported — bounds that are themselves expressions in the other variable (e.g. a triangular or curved region) are out of scope for this calculator.

What functions can I enter?

Anything mathjs's expression evaluator understands: polynomials (x^2*y - 2*x), trigonometric functions (sin(x)*cos(y)), roots and logarithms (sqrt(x*y), log(x+y)), and combinations of these, using x and y as the two variables. Angles in trig functions are in radians by default — write pi for π.

To evaluate a single-variable expression at a point, or arbitrary math expressions in general, see the Math Evaluator; for the divergence of a 3D vector field, see the Divergence Calculator.
