Best Answer

Let P = { x0, x1, x2, ..., xn} be a partition of the closed interval [a, b] and f a bounded function defined on that interval. Then: * the upper sum of fwith respect to the partition P is defined as: U(f, P) = cj (xj - xj-1) where cj is the supremum of f(x)in the interval [xj-1, xj]. * the lower sum of f with respect to the partition P is defined as L(f, P) = dj (xj - xj-1) where dj is the infimum of f(x) in the interval [xj-1, xj].
