Abstract
Although the familiar Riemann Integral is sufficient for a wide variety of problem solving-purposes in Applied Mathematics, a generalization of it, known as the Riemann-Stieltjes Integral, must be called upon in many situations. In the present Section we shall develop what is termed a 1-dimensional Riemann-Stieltjes Integral, first with respect to a 1-dimensional c.d.f., then, more generally, with respect to b.v.f.
