href="/wiki/Summation" title="Summation">sum</a>, which is used to calculate <a href="/wiki/Area" title="Area">areas</a>, <a href="/wiki/Volume" title="Volume">volumes</a>, and their generalizations. Integration, the process of computing an integral, is one of the two fundamental operations of <a href="/wiki/Calculus" title="Calculus">calculus</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> the other being <a href="/wiki/Derivative" title="Derivative">differentiation</a>. Integration was initially used to solve problems in mathematics and <a href="/wiki/Physics" title="Physics">physics</a>, such as finding the area under a curve, or determining displacement from velocity. Usage of integration expanded to a wide variety of scientific fields thereafter. </p><p>A <b>definite integral</b> computes the <a href="/wiki/Signed_area" title="Signed area">signed area</a> of the region in the plane that is bounded by the <a href="/wiki/Graph_of_a_function" title="Graph of a function">graph</a> of a given function between two points in the <a href="/wiki/Real_line" class="mw-redirect" title="Real line">real line</a>. Conventionally, areas above the horizontal axis of the plane are positive while areas below are negative. Integrals also refer to the concept of an <i><a href="/wiki/Antiderivative" title="Antiderivative">antiderivative</a></i>, a function whose derivative is the given function; in this case, they are also called <i>indefinite integrals</i>. The <a href="/wiki/Fundamental_theorem_of_calculus" title="Fundamental theorem of calculus">fundamental theorem of calculus</a> relates definite integration to differentiation and provides a method to compute the definite integral of a function when its antiderivative is known; differentiation and integration are <a href="/wiki/Inverse_function" title="Inverse function">inverse</a> operations. </p><p>Although methods of calculating areas and volumes dated from <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Greek_mathematics" class="mw-redirect" title="Ancient Greek mathematics">ancient Greek mathematics</a>, the principles of integration were formulated independently by <a href="/wiki/Isaac_Newton" title="Isaac Newton">Isaac Newton</a> and <a href="/wiki/Gottfried_Wilhelm_Leibniz" title="Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz">Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz</a> in the late 17th century, who thought of the area under a curve as an infinite sum of rectangles of <a href="/wiki/Infinitesimal" title="Infinitesimal">infinitesimal</a> width. <a href="/wiki/Bernhard_Riemann" title="Bernhard Riemann">Bernhard Riemann</a> later gave a rigorous definition of integrals, which is based on a limiting procedure that approximates the area of a <a href="/wiki/Curvilinear_coordinates" title="Curvilinear coordinates">curvilinear</a> region by breaking the region into infinitesimally thin vertical slabs. In the early 20th century, <a href="/wiki/Henri_Lebesgue" title="Henri Lebesgue">Henri Lebesgue</a> generalized Riemann's formulation by introducing what is now referred to as the <a href="/wiki/Lebesgue_integration" class="mw-redirect" title="Lebesgue integration">Lebesgue integral</a>; it is more general than Riemann's in the sense that a wider class of functions are Lebesgue-integrable. </p><p>Integrals may be generalized depending on the type of the function as well as the <a href="/wiki/Domain_(mathematical_analysis)" title="Domain (mathematical analysis)">domain</a> over which the integration is performed.

In each case, one may divide the sought quantity into infinitely many <a href="/wiki/Infinitesimal" title="Infinitesimal">infinitesimal</a> pieces, then sum the pieces to achieve an accurate approximation. </p><p>As another example, to find the area of the region bounded by the graph of the function <span class="texhtml"><i>f</i>(<i>x</i>) =</span> <span class="mwe-math-element"><span class="mwe-math-mathml-inline mwe-math-mathml-a11y" style="display: none;"><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="{\textstyle {\sqrt {x}}}"> <semantics> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mstyle displaystyle="false" scriptlevel="0"> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <msqrt> <mi>x</mi> </msqrt> </mrow> </mstyle> </mrow> <annotation encoding="application/x-tex">{\textstyle {\sqrt {x}}}</annotation> </semantics> </math></span><img src="https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/02f01419d50f8331ed8f948d3b0dce7d5bd75950" class="mwe-math-fallback-image-inline mw-invert skin-invert" aria-hidden="true" style="vertical-align: -0.838ex; width:3.266ex; height:2.843ex;" alt="{\textstyle {\sqrt {x}}}"></span> between <span class="texhtml"><i>x</i> = 0</span> and <span class="texhtml"><i>x</i> = 1</span>, one can divide the interval into five pieces (<span class="texhtml">0, 1/5, 2/5, ..., 1</span>), then construct rectangles using the right end height of each piece (thus <span class="texhtml"><span class="nowrap">&#8730;<span style="border-top:1px solid; padding:0 0.1em;">0</span></span>, <span class="nowrap">&#8730;<span style="border-top:1px solid; padding:0 0.1em;">1/5</span></span>, <span class="nowrap">&#8730;<span style="border-top:1px solid; padding:0 0.1em;">2/5</span></span>, ..., <span class="nowrap">&#8730;<span style="border-top:1px solid; padding:0 0.1em;">1</span></span></span>) and sum their areas to get the approximation </p> <dl><dd><span class="mwe-math-element"><span class="mwe-math-mathml-inline mwe-math-mathml-a11y" style="display: none;"><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="{\displaystyle \textstyle {\sqrt {\frac {1}{5}}}\left({\frac {1}{5}}-0\right)+{\sqrt {\frac {2}{5}}}\left({\frac {2}{5}}-{\frac {1}{5}}\right)+\cdots +{\sqrt {\frac {5}{5}}}\left({\frac {5}{5}}-{\frac {4}{5}}\right)\approx 0.7497,}"> <semantics> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mstyle displaystyle="true" scriptlevel="0"> <mstyle displaystyle="false" scriptlevel="0"> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <msqrt> <mfrac> <mn>1</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </msqrt> </mrow> <mrow> <mo>(</mo> <mrow> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mfrac> <mn>1</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </mrow> <mo>&#x2212;<!-- − --></mo> <mn>0</mn> </mrow> <mo>)</mo> </mrow> <mo>+</mo> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <msqrt> <mfrac> <mn>2</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </msqrt> </mrow> <mrow> <mo>(</mo> <mrow> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mfrac> <mn>2</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </mrow> <mo>&#x2212;<!-- − --></mo> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mfrac> <mn>1</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </mrow> </mrow> <mo>)</mo> </mrow> <mo>+</mo> <mo>&#x22EF;<!-- ⋯ --></mo> <mo>+</mo> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <msqrt> <mfrac> <mn>5</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </msqrt> </mrow> <mrow> <mo>(</mo> <mrow> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mfrac> <mn>5</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </mrow> <mo>&#x2212;<!-- − --></mo> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mfrac> <mn>4</mn> <mn>5</mn> </mfrac> </mrow> </mrow> <mo>)</mo> </mrow> <mo>&#x2248;<!-- ≈ --></mo> <mn>0.7497</mn> <mo>,</mo> </mstyle> </mstyle> </mrow> <annotation encoding="application/x-tex">{\displaystyle \textstyle {\sqrt {\frac {1}{5}}}\left({\frac {1}{5}}-0\right)+{\sqrt {\frac {2}{5}}}\left({\frac {2}{5}}-{\frac {1}{5}}\right)+\cdots +{\sqrt {\frac {5}{5}}}\left({\frac {5}{5}}-{\frac {4}{5}}\right)\approx 0.7497,}</annotation> </semantics> </math></span><img src="https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/07cee59815b00288f73cbdd9a9d9b4a3ba331c89" class="mwe-math-fallback-image-inline mw-invert skin-invert" aria-hidden="true" style="vertical-align: -1.838ex; width:60.856ex; height:4.843ex;" alt="{\displaystyle \textstyle {\sqrt {\frac {1}{5}}}\left({\frac {1}{5}}-0\right)+{\sqrt {\frac {2}{5}}}\left({\frac {2}{5}}-{\frac {1}{5}}\right)+\cdots +{\sqrt {\frac {5}{5}}}\left({\frac {5}{5}}-{\frac {4}{5}}\right)\approx 0.7497,}"></span></dd></dl> <p>which is larger than the exact value.

For instance, a sequence of functions can frequently be constructed that approximate, in a suitable sense, the solution to a problem. Then the integral of the solution function should be the limit of the integrals of the approximations. However, many functions that can be obtained as limits are not Riemann-integrable, and so such limit theorems do not hold with the Riemann integral. Therefore, it is of great importance to have a definition of the integral that allows a wider class of functions to be integrated.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Such an integral is the Lebesgue integral, that exploits the following fact to enlarge the class of integrable functions: if the values of a function are rearranged over the domain, the integral of a function should remain the same.

Extensive <a href="/wiki/Lists_of_integrals" title="Lists of integrals">tables of integrals</a> have been compiled and published over the years for this purpose. With the spread of computers, many professionals, educators, and students have turned to <a href="/wiki/Computer_algebra_system" title="Computer algebra system">computer algebra systems</a> that are specifically designed to perform difficult or tedious tasks, including integration. Symbolic integration has been one of the motivations for the development of the first such systems, like <a href="/wiki/Macsyma" title="Macsyma">Macsyma</a> and <a href="/wiki/Maple_(software)" title="Maple (software)">Maple</a>. </p><p>A major mathematical difficulty in symbolic integration is that in many cases, a relatively simple function does not have integrals that can be expressed in <a href="/wiki/Closed-form_expression" title="Closed-form expression">closed form</a> involving only <a href="/wiki/Elementary_function" title="Elementary function">elementary functions</a>, include <a href="/wiki/Rational_function" title="Rational function">rational</a> and <a href="/wiki/Exponential_function" title="Exponential function">exponential</a> functions, <a href="/wiki/Logarithm" title="Logarithm">logarithm</a>, <a href="/wiki/Trigonometric_functions" title="Trigonometric functions">trigonometric functions</a> and <a href="/wiki/Inverse_trigonometric_functions" title="Inverse trigonometric functions">inverse trigonometric functions</a>, and the operations of multiplication and composition. The <a href="/wiki/Risch_algorithm" title="Risch algorithm">Risch algorithm</a> provides a general criterion to determine whether the antiderivative of an elementary function is elementary and to compute the integral if is elementary. However, functions with closed expressions of antiderivatives are the exception, and consequently, computerized algebra systems have no hope of being able to find an antiderivative for a randomly constructed elementary function. On the positive side, if the 'building blocks' for antiderivatives are fixed in advance, it may still be possible to decide whether the antiderivative of a given function can be expressed using these blocks and operations of multiplication and composition and to find the symbolic answer whenever it exists. The Risch algorithm, implemented in <a href="/wiki/Mathematica" class="mw-redirect" title="Mathematica">Mathematica</a>, <a href="/wiki/Maple_(software)" title="Maple (software)">Maple</a> and other <a href="/wiki/Computer_algebra_system" title="Computer algebra system">computer algebra systems</a>, does just that for functions and antiderivatives built from rational functions, <a href="/wiki/Nth_root" title="Nth root">radicals</a>, logarithm, and exponential functions. </p><p>Some special integrands occur often enough to warrant special study. In particular, it may be useful to have, in the set of antiderivatives, the <a href="/wiki/Special_functions" title="Special functions">special functions</a> (like the <a href="/wiki/Legendre_function" title="Legendre function">Legendre functions</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Hypergeometric_function" title="Hypergeometric function">hypergeometric function</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Gamma_function" title="Gamma function">gamma function</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Incomplete_gamma_function" title="Incomplete gamma function">incomplete gamma function</a> and so on). Extending Risch's algorithm to include such functions is possible but challenging and has been an active research subject. </p><p>More recently a new approach has emerged, using <a href="/wiki/D-finite_function" class="mw-redirect" title="D-finite function"> <i>D</i>-finite functions</a>, which are the solutions of <a href="/wiki/Linear_differential_equation" title="Linear differential equation">linear differential equations</a> with polynomial coefficients. Most of the elementary and special functions are <i>D</i>-finite, and the integral of a <i>D</i>-finite function is also a <i>D</i>-finite function. This provides an algorithm to express the antiderivative of a <i>D</i>-finite function as the solution of a differential equation. This theory also allows one to compute the definite integral of a <i>D</i>-function as the sum of a series given by the first coefficients and provides an algorithm to compute any coefficient. </p><p>Rule-based integration systems facilitate integration. Rubi, a computer algebra system rule-based integrator, pattern matches an extensive system of symbolic integration rules to integrate a wide variety of integrands. This system uses over 6600 integration rules to compute integrals.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERichScheibeAbbasi2018_55-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERichScheibeAbbasi2018-55"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The <a href="/wiki/Ramanujan%27s_master_theorem#Bracket_integration_method" title="Ramanujan&#39;s master theorem"> method of brackets</a> is a generalization of Ramanujan's master theorem that can be applied to a wide range of univariate and multivariate integrals.
