I have a question for you Sci. I have amassed an Excel Spreadsheet containing about a thousand linear functions that I need to calculate the integrals of. I'm not about about to sit here and punch a thousand functions into a calculator by hand, so my question to you is: how would I go about automating this task?
use excel and copy paste

email martin shkreli, beg for his help. He could do it in 10seconds.

matlab

are those the actual functions? or are they more complicated

Those are the actual functions. They are simple, but there are a LOT of them.
Read the spreadsheet into your framework of choice and have the computer solve the integrals. Probably python or R and a math library will do the trick, and require the least effort to code.

then it's simple power rule, here's the formula
just drag it down the sheet

That is excellent anon. Now how would I find the area of each?

Disregard. All this really is, is the area of a trapezoid where one side is b+m the other is b+18*m and h=17.
These are all linear functions, so the integrals all look the same. The data doesn't need to be parsed. The area under the curves can be easily calculated from the integral. Just do the work.

Matlab? (or octave)
You should be able to import everything.
Writing a program that does that is also not hard especially if you use some libraries but even a bare bones C implementation should be very quick.
You probably can do it in excel itself. It really shouldn't be hard.
