| Jun 9, 2017 at 23:30 | comment | added | user78249 | I'm not sure how creative telescoping applies here. For me, I always thought creative telescoping was finding $\Delta y = F(x)$ when the solution $y$ requires a non-obvious approach. I could be wrong though. +1 for Feynman's method though, I use it all the time and sometimes I lost marks because "I didn't use contour integration." | |
