Consider the function , graphed in the range . Suppose we represented the function in polar coordinates instead of Cartesian coordinates . Here, is the distance from the origin, and is the angle with respect to the positive axis.
Then we could calculate the angle-weighted average of the radius. In the expression below, the parenthetical indicates that the radius is a function of the angle.
What is , where denotes the floor function?
