Definition

The set function λn:(Rn,B(Rn))R[1] that assigns every half-open rectangle [[a,b))=[a1,b1)××[an,bn)J as follows:

λn([[a,b)))=Πni=1(biai)

Where J= the set of all half-open-half-closed 'rectangles' in Rn

Note that it can be shown B(Rn)=σ(J) where σ(J) is the [[Sigma-algebra|σ-algebra generated by J
