hey every1, how r u?
i wouldnt say it is difficult. it is one of the easiest areas in hsc maths ( my opinion) although many of my frienz hate it and consider it to be hard .. just wait and see when you do it

Correct me if I'm wrong here but isn't Calculus concerned with rates of change e.g how fast the economy is growing and deals with dynamic situations?
And Differential Calculus is concerned with finding the gradient of the tangent ?

No you have two main branches of calculus.
Differential Calculus which is finding rate of change (of x with respect to y, $ with respect to time etc).
Integral Calculus which is finding the area under graphs (such as the amount of area covered if you know the speed versus time).
They are inverse operations.

oh david how great it is ou bless us with your presence. shouldnt you be patronising us mere 2 uniters or trying to convince us to pick up more maths or something?Estel said:
anyway calculus is tedious. series and perm/com and prob and basicly everything else bar the even more tedious full working and reasoning for geometry, are more fun
