| | Integral (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | Intuitively, the integral of a continuous, positive real-valued function f of one real variable x between a left endpoint a and a right endpoint b represents the area bounded by the lines x=a, x=b, the x-axis, and the curve defined by the graph of f. |
 | | Improper integrals usually turn up when the range of the function to be integrated is infinite or, in the case of the Riemann integral, when the domain of the function is infinite. |
 | | The Riemann-Stieltjes integral, an extension of the Riemann integral. |
