See http://www.sagemath.org/doc/reference/sage/functions/piecewise.html For example:
sage: f1(x) = x^2 sage: f = Piecewise([[(0,3),f1]]) sage: f.riemann_sum(6,mode="midpoint") Piecewise defined function with 6 parts, [[(0, 1/2), 1/16], [(1/2, 1), 9/16], [(1, 3/2), 25/16], [(3/2, 2), 49/16], [(2, 5/2), 81/16], [(5/2, 3), 121/16]] On Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 9:51 AM, M.E._Mac <rickcj...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I am taking a Calculus class and we are studying Reimann Sum.
