CALCULUS ------ BY. MWL. JAPHET MASATU


 
CALCULUS
The word Calculus comes from Latin meaning "small stone",
Because it is like understanding something by looking at small pieces.
Differential Calculus cuts something into small pieces to find how it changes.

Integral Calculus joins (integrates) the small pieces together to find how much there is.

  Read Introduction to Calculus or "how fast right now?"

Limits

Limits are all about approaching. Sometimes you can't work something out directly, but you can see what it should be as you get closer and closer!
Introduction to Limits
Limits and Infinity
Evaluating Limits
Limits (Formal Definition)

Continuous Functions  

Derivatives (Differential Calculus)

The Derivative is the "rate of change" or slope of a function.
Introduction to Derivatives
Slope of a Function at a Point (Interactive)
Derivatives as dy/dx
Derivative Plotter
Derivative Rules
Second Derivative
Differentiable
Finding Maxima and Minima using Derivatives
Concave Upwards and Downwards and Inflection Points
Taylor Series (uses derivatives)

Integration (Integral Calculus)

Integration can be used to find areas, volumes, central points and many useful things.
Introduction to Integration
Integration Rules
Integration by Parts
Integration by Substitution
Definite Integrals

If you want more Calculus topics covered, let me know which ones.
