For a bounded function on a nondegenerate compact interval , a partition has Darboux sumsThe Riemann integrability criterion isEquivalently the supremum of lower sums and infimum of upper sums agree; their common value is the Riemann integral. A bounded nonintegrable example is the Dirichlet function . Every positive-length interval contains rational and irrational points, so every lower sum is zero and every upper sum is .
