∫f(x).dx from a(lower limit) to a(upper limit) =0
Is this always true

I think wolframalpha try to say it is infinity
The limit of an integral is a mathematical concept that represents the value that an integral approaches as the size of the intervals used in the integration process approaches zero.
This is because the integral is defined as the area under the curve between two points, and when those two points are the same (a to a), the area is essentially a line with no width, resulting in a value of zero.
No, the limit of an integral can have various values depending on the function being integrated and the limits of integration. It is only equal to zero when the limits of integration are the same.
No, the limit of an integral can only exist if the function being integrated is continuous. If the function has any discontinuities within the given limits of integration, the limit does not exist.
The fundamental theorem of calculus states that the derivative of a function can be calculated by evaluating the limit of an integral. In other words, the limit of an integral is the inverse process of taking a derivative, and understanding the relationship between the two can help in solving complex mathematical problems.
