What is the definite integral of x^x from 0 to 2?

I=∫02xx dxI = \int_0^2 x^x \, dx

The definite integral of xxx^x from 0 to 2 is approximately 2.83392.8339, with a very small error estimate of about 2.66×10−102.66 \times 10^{-10}.

I can compute this numerically for you. Let's do that.

Why aren't U.S. prisons more like Marine Corps boot camp, were every second of the day there are mandatory activities so that at night everyone is so tired they go to sleep until wakeup at 5:30 am? Would this make prisons safer for all?

The integral of xxx^x from 0 to 2 does not have a simple closed-form solution using elementary functions. However, it can be computed numerically. The definite integral you're asking for is:
