In calculus, integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, reverse chain rule or change of variables, [1] is a method for evaluating integrals and antiderivatives. It is the counterpart to the chain rule for differentiation , and can loosely be thought of as using the chain rule "backwards."
Difficult integrals may often be evaluated by changing variables; this is enabled by the substitution rule and is analogous to the use of the chain rule above. Difficult integrals may also be solved by simplifying the integral using a change of variables given by the corresponding Jacobian matrix and determinant . [ 1 ]
Substitution, written M[x := N], is the process of replacing all free occurrences of the variable x in the expression M with expression N. Substitution on terms of the lambda calculus is defined by recursion on the structure of terms, as follows (note: x and y are only variables while M and N are any lambda expression): x[x := N] = N

Euler substitution is a method for evaluating integrals of the form ∫ R ( x , a x 2 + b x + c ) d x , {\displaystyle \int R(x,{\sqrt {ax^{2}+bx+c}})\,dx,} where R {\displaystyle R} is a rational function of x {\displaystyle x} and a x 2 + b x + c {\textstyle {\sqrt {ax^{2}+bx+c}}} .
Often, theory can establish the existence of a change of variables, although the formula itself cannot be explicitly stated. For an integrable Hamiltonian system of dimension , with ˙ = / and ˙ = /, there exist integrals .
That’s the rule. If you substitute, you have time to match that substitution and we knew it was a critical situation. They substituted late, and I screamed in the headset, ‘Send somebody, send ...
The substitution rule states that for any φ and any term t, one can conclude φ[t/x] from φ provided that no free variable of t becomes bound during the substitution process. (If some free variable of t becomes bound, then to substitute t for x it is first necessary to change the bound variables of φ to differ from the free variables of t .)
