Semi-Integral


A fractional integral of order 1/2. The semi-integral of t^lambda is given by

 D^(-1/2)t^lambda=(t^(lambda+1/2)Gamma(lambda+1))/(Gamma(lambda+3/2)),

so the semi-integral of the constant function f(t)=c is given by

 D^(-1/2)c=clim_(lambda->0)(t^(lambda+1/2)Gamma(lambda+1))/(Gamma(lambda+3/2))=2csqrt(t/pi).
