    See? Newton and Leibniz weren’t that special after all!!11

    In the end, still better than cutting out the area under the curve and weighing it. Isn’t that what nutritionists did before Tai?

      I wouldn’t have thought of weighing party off a physical model. That’s really clever.

      Impractical obviously, but clever.

        It’s just like the water displacement method for finding the volume of an irregularly-shaped object. No biggie.
