Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

The purpose of this chapter is to establish a rigorous foundation for the integral calculus. It is not normal when introducing the integral calculus for the first time to teach it from first principles. Therefore, it is in fact assumed here that the student is already familiar with the integral calculus and its applications. The rigorous foundation of the calculus requires knowledge of limits. It is assumed that the student by this stage has already encountered the definition of limits, building on the theory of sequences and series. The student is also expected to be familiar with the definition of a continuous function and with the properties of differentiable functions, particularly the mean value theorem.
