In mathematics, a partition of an interval [a, b] on the real line is a finite sequence x0, x1, x2, …, xn of real numbers such that a = x0 < x1 < x2 < … < xn = b. In other terms, a partition of a compact interval I is a strictly increasing sequence of numbers (belonging to the interval I itself) starting from the initial point of I and arriving at the final point of I. Every interval of the form [xi, xi + 1] is referred to as a subinterval of the partition x.
