We could not find any analogical examples in available literature (except for rectangle and countable sets), so this paper is an attempt to fill this gap. We calculate sums, limits and plot graphs and dynamic plots of needed sets and unions of rectangles sums of which volumes approximate Lebesgue outer measure of the sets, using Mathematica. We also show how to calculate the needed sums and limits by hand (without CAS). The title of this paper is very similar to the title of author’s article (Wojas and Krupa in Math Comput Sci 11:363–381, 2017) which deals with definition of Lebesgue integral but this paper deals with definition of Lebesgue outer measure instead.
