What is Calculus? In this video, we give you a quick overview of calculus and introduce the limit, derivative and integral. We begin with the question “Who invented Calculus?” Next, we talk about the two main tools you’ll study: derivatives and integrals. To understand both of these you’ll first learn about limits. After you learn how to compute the derivative and integral for basic functions and apply them to real-world problems, you’ll move up to higher dimensions and study things like “partial derivatives” and “multiple integrals.” What to watch next: The Tangent Line & the Derivative Product Rule for Derivatives Quotient Rule How to Study For a Test How to Study Physics How to Study Programming Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss videos from Socratica! ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ We recommend the following books: How to Be a Great Student ebook: Paperback: Kindle Unlimited: Innumeracy: Mathematical Illiteracy and Its Consequences The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin (Chess Prodigy) Shop Amazon Used Textbooks - Save up to 90% ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ Ways to support our channel: ►  Join our Patreon : ►  Make a one-time PayPal donation: ►  We also accept Bitcoin @ 1EttYyGwJmpy9bLY2UcmEqMJuBfaZ1HdG9 Thank you! ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ Connect with us!
