all it really is just finding the slope of a line that is tangent to some curve with exactly one point. that is when you let n run to infinity.

uhhh... theres definitely more to calculus than that. you sound like someone who just learned the definition of slopes in Calc I and thinks he hasit all down pat.

haha. well to dislike it i'm sure he's at that stage.

i'm a math and stats major. i miss the glory days of the original definition. haha.

cauchy riemann, fourier, la place, bernoulli, vector spaces, infinite space...

It was hard but what you can do with it is pretty

. Plus when you getdone with calc, you can get into your upper Engr, etc courses.

The eff am i ever going to need to know the derivative of the natural log of x to the 4th squared for?
 
I don't see calculus as something I need to get by in life.
 
workin on the take home test now...smh this is ridiculous
 
vector calculus unappreciated. parametrized, triple integrals, fubini theorems, Lagrange multiplier. I'm pretty sure i failed my test today.

math major btw
I think I PMed you about before over the summer. What are you going to do with it?
I'm leaning towards Stats man.. maybe finance later.
But it's reallyyy helping for the upper year Econ courses I'm taking.
Haha, at the end of the day though...I'm cashing in on a smart card. Research math ain't for me, let alone actuarial work.
 
Calc 1 is ridiculously easy. Calc 2 is something else. Intergrals, series, sequences. Ive never questioned my intelligence this much, at one point i eventhought maybe jumping isnt so bad. haha jk, but yeah if you think Calc 1 is hard, then good luck with Calc 2
