stochastic calculus - Integral of Brownian motion w.r.t. time


Let


$$X_t = \int_0^t W_s \,\mathrm d s$$


where $W_s$ is our usual Brownian motion. My questions are the following:




  1. Expectation?

  2. Variance?

  3. Is it a martingale?

  4. Is it an Ito process or a Riemann integral?


Any reference for practicing tricky problems like this?


For the expectation, I know it's zero via Fubini. We can put the expectation inside the integral. Now, for the variance and the martingale questions, do we have any tricks? Thanks!
