Integrate ln(x) by parts then differentiate to prove the result is correct

Integrating by parts requirez recognition that ln(x) is equal to ln(x) multiplied by 1. Making u equal to ln(x) should make the integration trivial. Differentiation is a simple use of the product rule and chain rule for ln(x) itself.
