On bounded intervals the exponential series converges uniformly, allowing termwise integration. Since e−t2=1−t2+t4/2+O(t6),
I(x)=π​2​(x−3x3​+10x5​+O(x7)).
(1)
The requested first two nonzero terms are therefore
I(x)=π​2x​−3π​2x3​+O(x5).​
(2)
The function is the error function, with I(0)=0 and derivative 2e−x2/π​.
