[ \int_{0}^{1} x \cdot e^{-x^2} , dx ] can be solved using integration by substitution.
Let ( u = -x^2 ) and ( du = -2x , dx ).
[ \int_{0}^{1} x \cdot e^{-x^2} , dx = -\frac{1}{2} \int_{0}^{1} e^u , du ]
[ = -\frac{1}{2} \left[ e^u \right]_{0}^{1} ]
[ = -\frac{1}{2} (e^1 - e^0) ]
[ = -\frac{1}{2} (e - 1) ]
[ = \frac{1}{2} (1 - e) ]

To find the integral ( \int_{0}^{1} x \cdot e^{-x^2} , dx ), you can use integration by substitution. Let ( u = -x^2 ), then ( du = -2x , dx ). Solving for ( dx ), we have ( dx = -\frac{1}{2x} , du ).
Substituting these values into the integral, we get: [ \int_{0}^{1} x \cdot e^{-x^2} , dx = \int_{u(0)}^{u(1)} -\frac{1}{2} e^{u} , du ]
Now, evaluate the integral with respect to ( u ): [ \int_{u(0)}^{u(1)} -\frac{1}{2} e^{u} , du = -\frac{1}{2} \int_{0}^{-1} e^{u} , du ]
The integral of ( e^{u} ) with respect to ( u ) is ( e^{u} ). So, we have: [ -\frac{1}{2} \int_{0}^{-1} e^{u} , du = -\frac{1}{2} \left[ e^{u} \right]_{0}^{-1} ]
Substitute the limits of integration and simplify: [ -\frac{1}{2} \left[ e^{-1} - e^0 \right] = -\frac{1}{2} \left( e^{-1} - 1 \right) ]
Therefore, the value of the integral ( \int_{0}^{1} x \cdot e^{-x^2} , dx ) is ( -\frac{1}{2} \left( e^{-1} - 1 \right) ).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
