∙ 9y agoSummation is the process of adding things together or a sum total of things added together. The term summation has a special meaning related to extrapolation of context.
Generally, progressive summation is the process of obtaining a cumulative sum at any time by adding together all prior occurrences.
Sigma is a discrete sum, a sum with steps. Eg. add the numbers from 1 to 10 or add the numbers 1/2, 1/4,... A sigma always has a concept of a next thing to add, even if the list of things goes on forever. An integral is a continuous summation. It is a summation in that we are adding up the area under the curve, for example, but it is continuous in that because we are adding things of arbitrary smallness it's not really possible to always point to the individual terms that are being added because they become some kind of continuous blur. Instead we use some mathematical technique (integration). But still it is a kind of summation.
Adding two or more numbers together gives you a sum.
Answer: It is another word for "average". You can find the mean by adding all the numbers you have, then divide the total by how many numbers you had.

The branch of mathematics that deals with the method of summation is called calculus. Calculus involves finding a way to add up an infinite number of infinitely small quantities to arrive at a meaningful answer, such as finding the area under a curve or the total change in a function.

It depends on what you are adding.
The process of adding the effects of many postsynaptic potentials is called summation. There are two types of summation: temporal summation, where postsynaptic potentials from the same presynaptic neuron add up over a short period of time, and spatial summation, where postsynaptic potentials from multiple presynaptic neurons add up at the same time. Summation ultimately determines whether an action potential will be generated in the postsynaptic neuron.
derivative means dividing any thing into various small parts, while summation or integral means adding up various small parts to form a single entity.
When adding, the order does not matter. It's called the summation property.
Gross domestic product or GDP is a valuable summation of nations economic productivity. The simple formula for deriving GDP is adding a nation's total currency value of consumption, investment, government expenditures and net exports together.
Amalgamation is a scientific term for building or adding together.
add al the numbers together and then divide with the amount of numbers you started with
