Calculating the volume inside an arbitrary closed surface

Hi all I want to calculate the interior volume of a closed area. the aria is limited to: -l<x<l , -l<y<l , 0 < z < f(x,y) Could one help me??

Hello,

You can try the divergence theorem for volume calculation. I think it is the best option.

Thanks
