Find the Riemann sum … for … in Remark 1, when …

If is increasing for , the difference is the area of the rectangle minus the area of the rectangle. Those areas approach zero. So every increasing function on is Riemann integrable.

Find the Riemann sum for in Remark 1, when and each is the midpoint. This is well-behaved but still is not Riemann integrable.
