No, it doesn't.

Possibly. For 2-D integration of a function f(x,y), you can use an 
intermediate function object to return the 1-D integral of f(x,y) along 
y for a fixed x---let's call this function F(x). Then you can integrate 
F(x). For 3-D integration, use the above to get the 2-D integral G(z) 
along x,y for a given z and integrate G(z). Recurse as many times as 
needed.
