Abstract:

Closed expressions for the integral $\smallint _0^1{t^{ - 1}}{\log ^{n - 1}}t{\log ^p}(1 - t)\;dt$, whose general form is given elsewhere, are listed for $n = 1(1)9$, $p = 1(1)9$. A formula is derived which allows an easy evaluation of these expressions by formula manipulation on a computer.
