Lemma for Expectation of Logistic Distribution

$\ds \int_{\to 0}^{\to 1} \map \ln u \rd u = -1$


Proof

\(\ds \int_{\to 0}^{\to 1} \map \ln u \rd u\) \(=\) \(\ds \bigintlimits {u \map \ln u - u} 0 1\) Primitive of Logarithm of x
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \paren {\paren {0 - 1} - \paren {0 - 0} }\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds -1\)
