Description

This course is for anyone who wants to learn calculus, with or without a background in this subject. The course will start by covering the history of calculus, along with the fundamental rules which govern it and the functions it works with. As the course progresses you will learn about both partial and full derivatives, before covering integration. With integration we will look at integrating functions in general as well as integrating the space underneath a function on a graph, surfaces and 3D volumes using examples. As you reach the end of the course you will learn about vector calculus, firstly looking at a basic overview of what a vector is before putting together what you learned in the previous lecture to learn about the four vector identities, curl, gradient, divergence and the Laplacian.Starting from a basic grasp of what this subject is, you will learn knowledge and tools which will help you with any calculus problem you may encounter after this course.
