An Introductory Journey Through Calculus
Calculus is a branch of mathematics that studies continuous change. It is divided into two main branches: differential calculus, which concerns itself with rates of change and slopes of curves, and integral calculus, which is concerned with the accumulation of quantities and the areas under and between curves.
The methods of calculus are essential to the understanding of the physical universe and have applications across numerous fields, including physics, engineering, economics, statistics, and beyond. 🌌
