Written on a blackboard is the polynomial $x^2+x+2014$. Calvin and Hobbes take turns alternately (starting with Calvin) in the following game. At his turn, Calvin should either increase or decrease the coefficient of $x$ by $1$. And at this turn, Hobbes should either increase or decrease the constant coefficient by $1$. Calvin wins if at any point of time the polynomial on the blackboard at that instant has integer roots. Prove that Calvin has a winning stratergy.

The function $f(x)$ is defined for all $x\ge 0$ and is always nonnegative. It has the additional property that if any line is drawn from the origin with any positive slope $m$, it intersects the graph $y=f(x)$ at precisely one point, which is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{m}}$ units from the origin. Let $a$ be the unique real number for which $f$ takes on its maximum value at $x=a$ (you may assume that such an $a$ exists). Find $\int_{0}^{a}f(x) \, dx$.
