Is W.Alpha calculating double integrals incorrectly? Why is this happening?

Posted 10 years ago

I tried typing this into the wolfram alpha app " ??xcosy dydx , y from 0 to x^2 , x from 0 to 1 " I got an answer of " sin^2(1/2)= 0.2298.. " But the answer (as far as I can tell) should be 0.5 What's happening here?

I caluculated "by hand" and get 0.229849 too.
