Partition Definition 1. For a closed interval $[a, b]$, we subdivide the interval into subintervals, not necessarily of equal widths, as choosing $n-1$ points $\{ x_1, ..., x_{n-1} \}$ between $a$ and $b$ that are in increasing order, so that $x_0 = a partition of $[a, b]$. And we denote the width of the $k$th subinterval by $\Delta x_k$ which means that $\Delta x_k = x_k - x_{k-1}$. Norm of a P..
