Hello waluyo,

You have a singular point at the lower limit (0) - (division by zero). In SMath there is a simple Simpson based integration formula implemented at the moment. The best you can get is to use some small number instead of zero (although the result will be erronous).
I hope that some more sophisticated numerical (maybe analytical as well) integration algorithms will be implemented in SMath sooner or later.

Regards,
Radovan
