![**Problem Statement:**
Evaluate exactly:
\[ \int_{0}^{\ln 4} xe^x \, dx \]
---
**Additional Notes:**
- The problem is displayed in a word processor-like interface with formatting options.
- Specifically, the problem asks to evaluate an integral with limits from 0 to \(\ln 4\).
- The integrand is \(xe^x\).
---
This kind of problem is typically approached using integration by parts. To evaluate this integral:
Let \( u = x \) and \( dv = e^x \, dx \).
Then, the corresponding \( du = dx \) and \( v = e^x \).
Using the integration by parts formula, \(\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du\), we proceed as follows:
\[ \int_{0}^{\ln 4} xe^x \, dx = \left. x e^x \right|_{0}^{\ln 4} - \int_{0}^{\ln 4} e^x \, dx \]
\[ \left. x e^x \right|_{0}^{\ln 4} = (\ln 4) e^{\ln 4} - 0 \cdot e^0 \]
\[ = (\ln 4) \cdot 4 - 0 \]
\[ = 4 \ln 4 \]
Now, evaluating \(\int_{0}^{\ln 4} e^x \, dx \):
\[ \int e^x \, dx = e^x \]
\[ \left. e^x \right|_{0}^{\ln 4} = e^{\ln 4} - e^0 \]
\[ = 4 - 1 = 3 \]
Therefore,
\[ \int_{0}^{\ln 4} xe^x \, dx = 4 \ln 4 - 3 \]
Given the above steps, the exact value of the integral is:
\[ \boxed{4 \ln 4 - 3} \]
