The integral of y = Dirac(phi-m), in which phi is a continuously variable quantity and m is a positive integer, from -infinity to infinity yields 1 as an answer.   The analogous integral of y2 yields no answer.  Is it possible that the latter integral has some mathematical meaning that might yield an answer?
