==Riemann intergral==
As a geometric interpretation of the integral of the area of a curve the Riemann integral consist of dividing the area under the curve of the function into rectangles. The [[range]] of the function is partioned into N segments of width <math>\frac{b-a}{N}</math>. The height of the is dependent on which side of the rectangle is taken. The lower sum takes the lower side of the rectangle, the upper sum the higher side of the rectangle. In the limit of <math>N\rightarrow\infty</math> these two sums become the intergral. If the approach the same value then the integral exists, otherwise it is undefined.
