To calculate the antiderivative of the function, we'll
            have to determine the indefinite integral of (x^2 - 3x +
            2)/(x-1)
We notice that the roots of the numerator are 1
            and 2, therefore we can re-write the quadratic as a product of linear
            factors:
x^2 - 3x + 2 =
            (x-1)(x-2)
We'll calculate the indefinite integral of the
            given function:
Int (x^2 - 3x + 2)dx/(x-1) = Int
            (x-1)(x-2)dx/(x-1)
We'll simplify and we'll
            get:
Int (x-1)(x-2)dx/(x-1) = Int (x-2)dx = Int xdx - 2Int
            dx
Int (x^2 - 3x + 2)dx/(x-1) = x^2/2 - 2x +
            C
The antiderivative of the function is Int
            (x^2 - 3x + 2)dx/(x-1) = x^2/2 - 2x + C.
