Euler integration was defined by Schanuel and subsequently explored by Rota, Chen, and Klain.  The Euler integral of a
Function 
 (assumed to be piecewise-constant with finitely many discontinuities) is the sum of
over the finitely many discontinuities of 
.  The 
-D Euler integral can be defined for classes of functions
.  Euler integration is additive, so the Euler integral of 
 equals the sum of the Euler integrals of
 and 
.
