Not really, just invention by definition. For Newton what we would call an integral he thought of as an antiderivative. There is no procedure for finding an antiderivative in general although calculus students do, in fact, study a multitude of procedures that work for specific selected cases. For example here is my invention of the square root:
\sqrt{x} = y if and only if y is nonnegative and y2 = x.
I have not offered a procedure for finding a square root, just a bare definition of what I mean. Is that an invention? Maybe. Are you sure there are numbers that have square roots, apart from obvious cases like x = 4, 9, 16, ... ?
But the real work is finding some constructive methods for producing square roots. The real work in finding constructive methods of determining integrals was done by many eighteen century mathematicians, by Cauchy, by Riemann, by Lebesgue, and by Denjoy. ...BST

What are 4 things Isaac Newton invent?
Calculus and lots of laws of physics. The only thing he really invented was the reflecting telescope. He did not invent gravity but he discovered the existence of gravity.
Did Isaac Newton invent hopscotch?
no
What cookie did Isaac Newton invent?

Did Sir Isaac Newton invent the printing press?
No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did Isaac Newton invent anything other that the telescope?
Newton did not actually invent anything besides his three laws of motion.
Did Isaac Newton Invent Calculus?
yes
What did sr Isaac Newton invent?
calculus
How did isaac newton invent calculus?
Yes and no. Isaac Newton and Gottfried Liebniz independently invented differential and integral calculus. The theoretical aspect came more from Liebniz whereas Newton contributed more in terms of applications. A lot of the notation comes from Liebniz.
What branch of math did Isaac newton invent?
No Isaac Newton did not invent the branch of geometry. Isaac Newton actually invented modern calculus in the 17th century.
Did Einstein invent calculus If not, who did?
No, Einstein did not invent calculus, Isaac Newton did. Liebniz did as well at around the same time and there was a major debate on who invented calculus first, but I think the more popular answer is Isaac Newton. Put Leibniz–Newton calculus controversy into wiki for an artcile about this debate.
What mathematical concepts are connected to Isaac Newton?
Calculus, both differential and integral.
What mathematical thing did Sir Isaac Newton invent?
That 'thing' is called Calculus.
Did Isaac Newton invent geometry?
No. He invented calculus. He did, however, study geometry.
Mathematician who claimed integral calculus?
Isaac Newton. Mush of the theoretical work was due to Gottfried Leibniz.
Who developed integral calculus?
Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727) and Gottfried Leibniz (1646-1716)
What did Isaac Newton invent or discover in science?
he invented calculus, discovered universal gravitation, and the reflecting telescope
A form of mathematics developed by Isaac Newton?
Calculus is a form of mathematics developed by Isaac Newton.
