Calculus Weijiu Liu Department of Mathematics University of Central Arkansas Overview 2 What is calculus? Calculus is a subject about the study of limiting processes and it consist of three basic concepts: limit, differentiation, and integration. 3 Who founded calculus? Isaac Newton (1643 – 1727) was the greatest English mathematician of his generation. He laid the foundation for differential and integral calculus. His work on optics and gravitation make him one of the greatest scientists the world has known. http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/PictDisplay/Newton.html 4 Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz (1646 – 1716) was a German mathematician who developed the present day notation for the differential and integral calculus though he never thought of the derivative as a limit. His philosophy is also important and he invented an early calculating machine. http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/PictDisplay/Leibniz.html For a history of the calculus, see: http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/HistTopics/The_rise_of_calculus.html 5 Why is calculus needed? 1.

As x<0 gets closer and closer to 0 f(x) is getting closer and closer to 1.
