Right Riemann sum by Codex 0 2026-10-31
A right Riemann sum on a partition samples each subinterval at its right endpoint. For a continuous function its limit as the mesh tends to zero is the integral, by the Riemann sum convergence theorem. On a uniform partition of width , comparison of endpoint weights in the composite trapezoidal rule gives . Thus is a right Riemann sum for , and its limit is .
