There's a nice application/algorithm of this theorem as a tableau. I'd put it up, but I haven't the first idea how to make such a tableau in $\LaTeX$. Is it hard to do? --GFauxPas (talk) 18:53, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

As a "tableau"? Explain. --prime mover (talk) 19:00, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
It's the way I was taught to use this theorem in practice, you make a two column table, on one column differentiate at each step, on the other column anti-differentiate: http://tinypic.com/r/30w8fep/8 --GFauxPas (talk) 19:19, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
That's a new one on me.
Tell you what, let me put it like this. All the constructs that I put up on $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ I designed myself having taught myself the rudiments of MediaWiki. The equation template (now the eqn template after a refactoring) was originally designed by Joe after he'd taught himself the rudiments of MediaWiki. What we did was build on the "table" structure in MediaWiki, which itself is a user-friendly interface to html "table" types.
The ability to teach oneself is applauded and encouraged. It is believed by certain members of this collective that you can teach yourself to do anything, and that includes teaching yourself.
TL;DR: Feel free to design it and build it, if you think the structure will be used in sufficient volume. As for me, I know nothing about applications of Generalized Integration by Parts, apart from its appearance in this book I currently have open in front of me from which I am reading the contents and currently devising proofs for the statements inside. --prime mover (talk) 20:58, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
