How integral calculus has developed ... Archimedes (approximatly 250 B.C) is said to be the greatest scientist before Newton, and Archimedes was able to apply the method of exhaustion, which is the early form of integration. While Antiphon used squares and circles, Archimedes used parabolic segments and triangles.

The origins of the differential and integral calculus - 1 ... Archimedes, in the 3rd century BCE, had been able to calculate areas under curves and volumes of certain solids by a method of approximation, called the method of exhaustion, based on using known areas and volumes of rectangles, discs, etc.

The other key concept is integral calculus. It studies the accumulation of quantities, such as areas under a curve, linear distance travel, or volume displaced. Integral calculus is the mirror image of differential calculus. ... Archimedes developed this method further, while also inventing heuristic methods which...
