You could use Tais method

You got it backwards.

Do you understand Riemann sums?
You don't need an analytic function to compute the integral, you only need a sample of data points (more points, more accurate result). You gain nothing by approximating by an elementary function first.
If f(n) and f(n+d) are two consecutive points, then the contribution to the integral from the inteveral of length d is
d·(f(n)+f(n+d))/2

(As the oscilloscope data is probably supperposition of sine's, if you're super lazy you might find a fourier analysis package so that the numerical integration is reprsented by a look-up table)

hahahahaha

Montecarlo method

random();
if random() < graph(unitary area) then integral++

you need some very basic programming skills, which you should have

you could also go full sperg like >>7217436, which you also should be able to

>oscilloscope
nvm all of above, just check machine manual and press buttan

or grab some capacitors and build an integration circuit

errr that's the same I said, I read over and thought he suggested analytical
