In calculus, the integral of a function is a generalization of the concept of a sum, typically with direct physical interpretation pertaining to area, mass, or volume. The process of finding integrals is integration, in its mathematical meaning. Unlike the closely-related process of differentiation, there are several possible definitions of integration, with different technical underpinnings. They are, however, compatible; any two different ways of integrating a function will give the same result when they are both defined.
The word "integral" may also refer to antiderivatives in a mild abuse of language. (The antiderivative of a function is that function whose derivative is equal to the first function.) Though they are closely related through the fundamental theorem of calculus, the two notions are conceptually distinct. When one wants to clarify this distinction, an antiderivative integral is referred to as an indefinite integral (a function), while the integrals discussed in this article are termed definite integrals.

Basically a definite integral is a sum.
It is the value of the area between the graph, the x-axis, the start x and the end x.

if you already know how to do integrals, its basically adding +C to the answer to show that there is something there as in 4x+C is definite. the integral of the same equation being indefinite is just 4x.

integral which have some limit of no. i mean it have certain scale from some no. to some other no. within that scale
