What is the definite integral of x^x from 0 to 2?

The integral of xxx^x from 0 to 2 does not have a simple closed-form solution using elementary functions. However, it can be computed numerically. The definite integral you're asking for is:

I=∫02xx dxI = \int_0^2 x^x \, dx

I can compute this numerically for you. Let's do that.

My parents force me (15yo atheist) to go to church, and there’s this thing called Small Sundays where we discuss the Bible in groups, there are questions asked about the Bible. What am I supposed to do when they ask?

The definite integral of xxx^x from 0 to 2 is approximately 2.83392.8339, with a very small error estimate of about 2.66×10−102.66 \times 10^{-10}. ​
