Dynamic Riemann Sum Applet
Controls:
- the interval [a,b],
- the number of rectangles, n,
- the function, f(x), and
- where along the width of each rectangle the height is sampled from, ranging from p=0 (the left side) to p=1 (the right side).
What effect does it have if f(x) is discontinuous? Try something like f(x) = x - abs(x - 2) / (x - 2).
