Calculus

The fundamental idea of calculus is to study change by studying “instantaneous” change, by which we mean changes over tiny intervals of time. It turns out that such changes tend to be lots simpler than changes over finite intervals of time. This means they are lots easier to model. Calculus is the broad area of mathematics dealing with such topics as instantaneous rates of change, areas under curves, and sequences and series. It has two basic applications: differential calculus and integral calculus. The simplest introduction to differential calculus involves an explicit series of numbers. Differential calculus essentially lets one calculate the rate of change. So say variable ‘y’; is a function of variable ‘x’. Integrals, together with derivatives, are the fundamental objects of calculus. The process of computing an integral is called integration. Among the disciplines that utilize calculus include physics, engineering, economics, statistics, and medicine. It is used to create
