The notation was introduced by the Germany German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz towards the end of the 17th century. The symbol was based on the Unicode long s character, and was chosen because Leibniz thought of the integral as an infinite summation sum of infinitesimal summands. See long s for more details on the history of Unicode . The Unicode symbol is U 222B in Unicode and code int code in LaTeX . In HTML , it is written as code & x222b code hexadecimal , code & 8747 code decimal and code & int code named entity . The original IBM PC code page 437 character set included a couple of characters Unicode & x2320 and Unicode & x2321 codes 244 and 245, respectively to build the integral symbol. These were deprecated in subsequent MS DOS code page s, but they still remain in Unicode U 2320 and U 2321, respectively for compatibility. The Unicode symbol is very similar to, but not to be confused with, the IPA symbol called esh letter esh . Related symbols are Unicode double integral , U 222C , Unicode triple integral , U 222D , Unicode contour integral , U 222E , Unicode closed manifold closed surface integral , U 222F , and Unicode closed volume integral , U 2230 .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 In knowledge based systems, agents choose actions based on the principle of rationality to move closer to a desired goal. The agent is able to make decisions based on knowledge it has about the world see knowledge level . But for the agent to actually change its state, it must use whatever means it has available. This level of description for the agent s behavior is the symbol level . For example, in a computer program, the knowledge level consists of the information contained in its data structures that it uses to perform certain actions. The symbol level consists of the program s algorithms, the data structures themselves, and so on.
