# Arc Length Calculator and Plotter
This Python app calculates the arc length (longitud del recorrido) of a given function f(x) = x^3 - 5x^2 + 6x over the interval [0,4], using numerical integration.
The app also optionally plots the function to visualize the profile of the curve.
## Features
**Numerical Integration:** Calculates the arc length of the function using SciPy's `quad()` function.
**Plotting:** Optionally generates a plot of the function 𝑓(𝑥) to visualize its shape.
## Install the required packages
```
pip install numpy scipy matplotlib
```
## How to Use
To calculate the arc length and (optionally) plot the function, simply run the Python script:
```
python arc_length_with_plot.py
```
## Example
The result will be displayed as follows:
```
Longitud del recorrido: 15.1234 metros
```
## Additionally, the function's graph will be displayed to visualize the profile
