Prompt: Write a Python script for mathematical integration and format as LaTeX
Here is the Python implementation using **SciPy** and **SymPy** for numerical and symbolic integration:
```python
import sympy as sp
from scipy import integrate
x = sp.Symbol('x')
f = sp.exp(-x**2)
exact_result = sp.integrate(f, (x, 0, sp.oo))
print(f"Exact Result: {exact_result}")
res, err = integrate.quad(lambda x: sp.exp(-x**2), 0, float('inf'))
print(f"Numerical Result: {res}")
```
Mathematical Formula
The Gaussian integral equation is represented as:
\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^2} dx = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2}Performance Comparison Matrix

What is ChatGPT to Markdown Export?
ChatGPT to Markdown Export is the process of converting raw text output from ChatGPT (GPT-4o) into standardized CommonMark format (.md) files.
While copying text directly from the ChatGPT web app works for simple text, it scrambles Python code indents, strips Markdown table borders, and breaks LaTeX equations. Chat2Doc provides 1-click parsing to produce clean notes that drag straight into Obsidian and Notion.
Why Use ChatGPT to Markdown?
Avoid formatting headaches caused by manual copy-pasting.
Prevent Broken Code Indentation
Standard copying flattens Python and TypeScript Tab indents, causing syntax errors in your IDE.
Obsidian & Notion Compatible
Exported .md files adhere strictly to CommonMark, ready to drop into knowledge graphs.
Preserve LaTeX Equations
Renders inline and block mathematical formulas cleanly in Obsidian and Notion.
Key Features
Conversion features designed for ChatGPT note management.
Language Tag Retention
Preserves syntax tags like ```python and ```typescript.
Markdown Table Alignment
Converts raw ChatGPT tables into neatly aligned pipe tables.
1-Click .MD Download
Saves as standard UTF-8 encoded offline .md text files instantly.
100% Client-Side Privacy
Processes 100% locally in browser JS engine without transmitting private chats.
