Lemma for Variance of Logistic Distribution

$\ds \int_{\to 0}^{\to 1} \map {\ln^2} u \rd u = 2$


Proof

\(\ds \int_{\to 0}^{\to 1} \map {\ln^2} u \rd u\) \(=\) \(\ds \bigintlimits {u \ln^2 u } 0 1 - 2 \int_{\to 0}^{\to 1} \map \ln u \rd u\) Primitive of Power of Logarithm of x
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \paren {\paren {0 - 0} - 2 \paren {-1} }\) Expectation of Logistic Distribution:Lemma 2
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2\)
