How should I compute the integral of the Cantor-Lebesgue function ∫_0^1〖F(x)〗 dm?

The Cantor-Lebesgue function, also known as the Devil's staircase function, is a continuous function that is constant on each interval in a Cantor set and has a graph that resembles a staircase. It was first described by mathematician Georg Cantor and later studied by Henri Lebesgue.
The integral of the Cantor-Lebesgue function can be computed using the Lebesgue integral, which is a generalization of the Riemann integral. It involves dividing the interval [0,1] into smaller subintervals and calculating the area under the curve for each subinterval.
The value of the integral of the Cantor-Lebesgue function is 1/2. This result can be derived using the Lebesgue integral or by using the self-similarity of the Cantor set and its measure.
No, the Cantor-Lebesgue function is not differentiable at any point. This is because it is a non-differentiable function that has a graph with infinite number of vertical tangents.
The Cantor-Lebesgue function has been used in various fields of mathematics, including analysis, topology, and fractal geometry. It has also been used in signal processing and image compression, as it can be used to generate a random signal with certain properties. Additionally, it has been studied in the context of dynamical systems and chaotic behavior.
