Abstract

We resolve and further study a sinc integral evaluation, first posed in the American Mathematical Monthly in [1967, p. 1015], which was solved in [1968, p. 914] and withdrawn in [1970, p. 657]. After a short introduction to the problem and its history, we give a general evaluation which we make entirely explicit in the case of the product of three sinc functions. Finally, we exhibit some general structure of the integrals in question.
