Welcome to the Math Community! This page provides an introduction to calculus, a fundamental branch of mathematics that deals with rates of change and accumulation.

Basic Concepts

  • Differential Calculus focuses on the rates at which quantities change.
  • Integral Calculus is about the accumulation of quantities.

Key Topics

  • Limits
  • Derivatives
  • Integrals
  • Applications of calculus in physics, engineering, and economics

Resources

Examples

Here's a simple example of a derivative:

  • If ( f(x) = x^2 ), then ( f'(x) = 2x ).

And an integral example:

  • The integral of ( x^2 ) from 0 to 3 is ( \frac{9}{3} = 3 ).

Practice
