Extractions: Topics in calculus Fundamental theorem Function Limits of functions Continuity ... Stokes' Theorem Calculus is a branch of mathematics , developed from algebra and geometry (see also pre calculus ). Calculus focuses on rates of change (within functions ), such as accelerations curves , and slopes . The development of calculus is credited to Archimedes Leibniz and Newton ; lesser credit is given to Barrow Descartes de Fermat Huygens , and Wallis . Fundamental to calculus are derivatives integrals , and limits . One of the primary motives for the development of calculus was the solution of the so-called " tangent line problem There are two main branches of calculus: Differential calculus is concerned with finding the instantaneous rate of change (or derivative ) of a function's value , with respect to changes within the function's arguments . Another application of differential calculus is Newton's method , an algorithm to find zeros of a function by approximating the function by its tangent. de Fermat is sometimes described as the "father" of differential calculus. Integral calculus , studies methods for finding the integral of a function. An integral may be defined as the

Extractions: PHYS 251 - Introduction to Computer Techniques in Physics Numerical Analysis - Differential Calculus Latest Modification: October 23, 2001 Notation : Equation numbers are placed in parentheses, (Eq. 1) , at the end of the sentence preceding the mathematical presentation of the equation. They should not be read as if they are part of the sentence. When reference is made to an equation, the word "equation" will be spelled out and not abbreviated. Mathematical and Greek symbols are not in all cases precise, since they may depend on the browser used. T he simplest approach to producing a numerical algorithm for calculating a first derivative is to invoke the limit process used in the analytical definition. Given the function f(x), we define the derivative of f(x) to be f'(x) = limit ( d d x) - f(x) ] / d from which we will approximate the first derivative by (Eq. 1) f'(x) [ f(x+h) - f(x) ] / h where h is a small interval in x, i.e. h = [ ( x+h ) - x ]. We could also define the derivative of f(x) to be (Eq. 2)

Calculus: The Differential Calculus
Encyclopediacalculus The Differential calculus. Sections in this article Introduction; The Differential calculus; The Integral calculus; Bibliography.
http://www.factmonster.com/ce6/sci/A0857110.html

Extractions: Encyclopedia calculus The differential calculus arises from the study of the limit of a quotient, Delta y Delta x, as the denominator Delta x approaches zero, where x and y are variables. y may be expressed as some function of x, or f(x), and Delta y and Delta x represent corresponding increments, or changes, in y and x. The limit of Delta y Delta x is called the derivative of y with respect to x and is indicated by dy dx or D x y equation The symbols dy and dx are called differentials (they are single symbols, not products), and the process of finding the derivative of y f(x) is called differentiation. The derivative dy dx df(x) dx is also denoted by or The derivative is itself a function of x and may be differentiated, the result being termed the second derivative of y with respect to x and denoted by or d y dx . This process can be continued to yield a third derivative, a fourth derivative, and so on. In practice formulas have been developed for finding the derivatives of all commonly encountered functions. For example, if y x n , then =nx n - 1 , and if y =sin x
Differential Calculus I
I mean, how hard can it be? . Leibniz 14 Nov 1716. I must caution the reader that this is my attempt to explain differential calculus to myself.
http://polophonic.8bit.co.uk/diff-calc.htm

Extractions: " I mean, how hard can it be? " Leibniz: 14 Nov 1716 We start with y = x. If we plot this, the line will be straight and will look like being between the x and y axis, running up to the top right hand corner at 45 degrees. y can be understood as a function of x. Functions are a simple, yet very powerful way of working with mathematical systems. For y = x the function is very simple. Imagine a sausage machine: into the top goes x, the handle is turned and out spits y at the bottom. y = x doesnt just mean that y is y = x + 4 Values of x are put in at the top and the function handle is turned. In doing so, 4 is added to x. The value of y is spat out at the bottom. Both x and y are variables. x can be understood as the input variable, y as the output variable. The function f which is applied to x, takes the input value, does something to it (in the previous example add 4) and then produces a final value, which is then assigned to y. Sausage meat (and who knows whatever else they put in sausages) at the top (x), handle turned (function evaluated) string of sausages produced at the bottom (y). As we can see from the graph of y = x + 4, it has the same line as y = x. The only difference will be that the line starts 4 points higher on the y axis. Any increase in x, will be matched by exactly the same increase in y. y will always be exactly 4 greater than x, no matter what is the value of x (it could be 1,10, -100 or 10000). What is the rate of change for this function? This is exactly the same question as what is the gradient of the line?

http://polophonic.8bit.co.uk/diff-calc2.htm

Extractions: Now we know the basis of differentiation, we can start to differentiate more complex systems. There are a number of rules that can be used in order to differentiate functions easily. Well, easier than trawling things through first principles. First off, the Constant Rule: n = (cn)x (n 1) It is easier to explain this rule, with the following function f(x) = x Putting these values into the Power Rule give us: We say 1x, in order to demonstrate where c is in the equation. Also x is just x, but we state it as x in order to demonstrate where the n should be placed. Lets start from the left: 1x becomes 2x . 1 X the power of x (2), then subtract the power of x by 1 (2 1 = 1). Once again x is just x. Hence 2x being the final answer for that part of the equation. Onto 4x. 4 X the power of x (which is 1) = 4. Reduce the power of x by 1 results in (any number to the power of equals 1. 4 X 1 = 4. The final 3 can be dealt with either via the Constant or Power rule. The Constant Rule simply says remove the constant. The Power Rule also removes the constant, but it would say something like: 3 X the power of = 0. There is nothing there for 3 in terms of powers of x, so we remove the 3 by multiplying it by 0. This is not a proof of the Constant Rule. Its simply my way of understanding the relationship between both rules, and it sort of works. Nuff said. Next production of functions and derivatives. If you can find the product of two functions, can you differentiate the product? Consider the following:

What differential calculus is, and, in general, analysis of the infinite might be, can hardly be explained to those innocent of any knowledge of it.
http://www.maa.org/reviews/brief_jan01.html

Extractions: John D. Blanton's new translation of the first nine chapters of Euler's Institutiones Calculi Diferentialis opens the door to a different world. Consider the opening words: "What differential calculus is, and, in general, analysis of the infinite might be, can hardly be explained to those innocent of any knowledge of it. Nor can we here offer a definition at the beginning of this dissertation as is sometimes done in other disciplines. It is not that there is no clear definition of this calculus; rather, the fact is that in order to understand the definition there are concepts that must first be understood." This is quintessential Euler: all the cards are on the table. He won't try to explain what the calculus is in his introduction, because you can only understand that by actually learning it. But keep reading, he's going to try anyway. He explains, in the next few paragraphs, that the calculus deals with changing quantities called variables , which he illustrates by considering "a shot fired from a cannon with a charge of gunpowder." This situation involves many quantities, he says, some of which are to be considered constant and others are variables. He goes on to define functions and to talk about their "vanishing increments," i.e., their differentials.
