I have seen some maths problems where there is a partial differential in the limits of integration, for example: $int_partial z $

What exactly does it represent/mean? When is it used?

  ohh...ok... i get it... Q is a region that denotes an "area", whereas $partialQ$ is the "circumference" around this 2-dimensional area. The "boundary" of the "area". Right or wrong?

If you provide more context, it may be clearer but it may mean "the boundary of $z$".

This makes sense if $z$ represents some region, e.g. a disc, and then the integral over $partial z$ means you integrate over its boundary, in the case of the example the circle bounding the disc.

The symbol $partial$ is often used to denote the boundary of a set. So, for example, if $D$ is some (nice enough) set in $mathbb C$, then $partial D$ is the boundary of $D$, and this means that the integral over $partial D$ is simply a line integral.
