Accumulation & Area
Sum → Integral
"If you can add up slices, you can find the whole."
Philosophical Origin：Archimedes method of exhaustion
Minimal Example
Area under curve approximated by sum of rectangles. More rectangles give better approximation.
One-Line Rule
"Accumulation is reverse of change."
Common Misconception vs Correct Understanding
Area is just length × width.
Area is accumulation of infinitesimal slices.
