Error using integralCalc/finalInputChecks (line 526)
Output of the function must be the same size as the input. If FUN is an array-valued integrand, set the 'ArrayValued' option to
true.
Error in integralCalc/iterateScalarValued (line 315)
finalInputChecks(x,fx);
Error in integralCalc/vadapt (line 132)
[q,errbnd] = iterateScalarValued(u,tinterval,pathlen);
Error in integralCalc (line 75)
[q,errbnd] = vadapt(@AtoBInvTransform,interval);
Error in integral (line 88)
Q = integralCalc(fun,a,b,opstruct);
Error in Jallohw5p7a (line 15)
vol=integral(fun,0,xf)
I cant seem to integrate this function.

Hi Rodrigo,
try adding a dot to the function definition line, for element-by-element division:
fun=@(x) Fao/(cao*k2)*(1+ep*x)./(1-x);
