This lecture introduces the concept of primitive functions, defining them as functions whose derivative is the original function. It explains that if a function has a primitive, it has infinitely many. The lecture also covers the theorem stating that if two functions are primitives of the same function on an interval, they differ by a constant. Examples of indefinite integrals of elementary functions are provided, along with calculations of primitives using integration techniques.
