Motivation for Integration
Integration is an abstract mathematical operation of “piling up” to represent a shape. For example, we can imagine the Pyramid from ancient Egypt. As we know, the Pyramid is made of many rectangular solids. Assuming we can only use the rectangular solids to make a Pyramid, one side of the pyramid is like a stair. In order to make the stair smoother so that the pyramid looks more like the perfect square-based-pyramid, smaller blocks can be used. But if we use smaller blocks, the total size of the pyramid also gets smaller, so we need to use more blocks to keep the rough total size. As we use smaller and more blocks, the steps of the stair will be smaller but the number of the stair will increase. By repeating this process, the pyramid can get closer and closer to the perfect square-based-pyramid. The total volume of the pyramid would be closer to the volume of a perfect square-based-planer as well. Our concept of mathematical integration is analogous to this process. Instead of blocks, we just use rectangles to make a stair along a curve smoother. The size of the pyramid could also influence the final volume of the perfect square-based-pyramid. The higher the pyramid is, the more layers of blocks were used to build the pyramid. When all those blocks for building the pyramid are extremely small, in comparison, the total number of the blocks used in a bigger pyramid is larger than a small pyramid. The difference of the total number of blocks used in two different pyramids with different sizes leads to difference on the size of two square-based-pyramids. This is similar to one of the ways to find the area under different curves.

Hit the tables at first thinking it was all luck, but diving deeper into https://jeetcitycanada.net/ showed me there’s actually a rhythm to this game that you don’t notice until you’ve lost a few rounds and finally start spotting patterns in the chaos, and once that clicks, it’s like a switch flips—you start making smarter bets, timing your moves better, and even small wins feel massive because you know you earned them. I found that pacing yourself and not chasing losses is huge, because when I first went all-in after a streak of bad luck, it tanked my balance fast, but sticking to incremental strategies actually kept the thrill alive and the wins consistent, and it turns what could be stressful moments into these adrenaline-fueled sessions that feel way more rewarding.
