Again the function is continuous on its domain and therefore a measurable function. For 0<x<1, ∣(logx)e−x∣≤−logx, and
∫01​−logxdx=1.
(1)
This standard improper integral follows from the antiderivative x−xlogx and xlogx→0 at zero. For x≥1, 0≤logx≤x, and integration by parts gives ∫1∞​xe−xdx=2/e. Thus
∫0∞​∣(logx)e−x∣dx≤1+e2​<∞.​
(2)
The logarithmic singularity is integrable and the exponential factor controls the tail, so this too is a Lebesgue integrable function.
