Number of rectangles approaches ∞ as norm approaches 0
2-dimensional order of rectangles doesn’t really matter
Double integral can find volume under surface
Examples
Integrate x siny over 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, 0 ≤ y ≤ π
Volume under z = x2 + y2 + 1 over rectangle -1 ≤ x ≤ 1, -1 ≤ y ≤ 1
Look at this problem with muPad, particularly how it can do
symbolic and numeric integration
How would an indefinite multivariable integral relate to derivatives?
Why don’t people talk about such integrals?
Integration with respect to x then y inverts differentiation with
respect to y then x
So Fubini’s theorem about order of integration complements/corresponds to
mixed derivative theorem about order of differentiation
But what would be a simple constant of integration in a one-variable
integral becomes pretty much any function of all variables except
the one you’re integrating with respect to in a multivariable
integral, which makes such integrals hard to get much use from
