The upper limit for the outer integral is expressed in floating-point form. This causes Maple to evaluate the integral numerically. The alternative would be to use a symbolic "1" and find that Maple can evaluate the inner integral exactly, but not evaluate the outer integral. An extra step would then be needed to evaluate the outer integral numerically.
The calculation of appears in Table 6.3.8(b).

An alternative approach is to employ the task template in Table 6.2.8(c). Note the use of the lower limit in floating-point form, and note that the "Floating-Point Approximation" button is pressed to obtain a numeric answer.
