Understanding Calculus with ClassPad illustrates the basic concepts
of calculus in a series of worked examples using the ClassPad
Calculator. By following the examples in this book, the reader will
gain an appreciation of how to use ClassPad to enhance his
knowledge of the mathematics, rather than to use a calculator just
to do the mathematics for him.
This is a textbook for the second semester of calculus. The major
topics are applications of integrals, methods of integration, the
inverse trigonometric functions, elementary differential equations,
calculus with polar coordinate functions and functions given by
parametric equations, sequences and infinite series. The text has
explanations, examples, worked solutions, problem sets and answers.
It has been reviewed by calculus instructors and class-tested by
them and the author. Topics are typically introduced by way of
applications, and the text contains the usual theorems and
techniques of a second semester of calculus. Besides technique
practice and applications of the techniques, the examples and
problem sets are also designed to help students develop a visual
and conceptual understanding of the main ideas of calculus. The
exposition and problem sets have been highly rated by reviewers.

Are you only partially getting partial integration? Stumbling
through foreign coordinate systems? Finding infinite series nothing
but infinite work? The NOW 2 kNOW series compiles hundreds of pages
of techno-jargon into concise, straightforward concepts saving you
tons of time and frustration. Calculus 2 builds on Calculus 1 with
multi-variable functions and adds new concepts with infinite
sequences and series. With thorough yet concise explanations and
over 200 problems and worked out solutions, the NOW 2 kNOW Calculus
2 text makes learning math much easier Inside this book: -
Multi-variable functions - Partial derivatives & integrals -
Cylindrical & Spherical coordinates - Limits with indeterminate
forms - Infinite sequences & series - Convergence tests - Power
series - Series representations of functions It's time for math to
get simplified.
A complete calculus text, including differentiation, integration,
infinite series, and introductions to differential equations and
multivariable calculus. By award-winning Frank Morgan of Williams
College.
This book is for math teachers and professors who need a handy
calculus reference book, for college students who need to master
the essential calculus concepts and skills, and for AP Calculus
students who want to pass the exam with a perfect score. Calculus
can not be made easy, but it can be made simple. This book is
concise, but the scope of the contents is not. To solve calculus
problems, you need strong math skills. The only way to build these
skills is through practice. To practice, you need this book.
Volume Two of an award-winning professor's introduction to
essential concepts of calculus and mathematical modeling for
students in the biosciences This is the second of a two-part series
exploring essential concepts of calculus in the context of
biological systems. Building on the essential ideas and theories of
basic calculus taught in Mathematical Models in the Biosciences I,
this book focuses on epidemiological models, mathematical
foundations of virus and antiviral dynamics, ion channel models and
cardiac arrhythmias, vector calculus and applications, and
evolutionary models of disease. It also develops differential
equations and stochastic models of many biomedical processes, as
well as virus dynamics, the Clancy-Rudy model to determine the
genetic basis of cardiac arrhythmias, and a sketch of some systems
biology. Based on the author's calculus class at Yale, the book
makes concepts of calculus less abstract and more relatable for
science majors and premedical students.
Additional Editors Are John Von Neumann, Hassler Whitney, And Oscar
Zariski.
This volume contains twenty contributions in the area of
mathematical physics where Fritz Gesztesy made profound
contributions. There are three survey papers in spectral theory,
differential equations, and mathematical physics, which highlight,
in particular, certain aspects of Gesztesy's work. The remaining
seventeen papers contain original research results in diverse areas
reflecting his interests. The topics of these papers range from
stochastic differential equations; operators on graphs; elliptic
partial differential equations; Sturm-Liouville, Jacobi, and CMV
operators; semigroups; to inverse problems.
Are you taking calculus right now and it's kicking your butt?
You're not alone; when I was teaching calculus, I realized that
textbooks suck I wrote the Practically Cheating Calculus Handbook
so that you don't have to struggle any more. This handbook contains
hundreds of step-by-step explanations for calculus problems from
differentiation to differential equations -- in plain English

If you are actually bothering to read this book it is likely that
the traditional approach to calculus education confused you as much
as it confused me. Calculus can be taught in many different ways
and the geometric approach made the most sense to me but I never
encountered it in my course of study. I was taught the detailed
minutia of calculus in my classes but the geometry that underlies
the core of Calculus was never be explained to me. I was simply
given formulas that seemed to have descended from the heavens and
was taught to eventually accept them on good faith as an
unquestionable truth and then told to perform operations with them
in hopes that somehow I will eventually understand calculus by
memorizing these formulas. This encounter with a faith based
approach to calculus left me with a lingering sense that the math
department has betrayed the principles of reason upon which the
mathematics was built. The stunning simplicity and beauty of the
basic derivatives was cruelly hidden from me at the time. This book
will try to give you a visual representation of what some of the
basic derivatives are all about. Your regular classes and the books
used to teach them will provide you with all of the practical
applications, quiz material, homework questions and other far more
boring bits that belong in a proper Calculus book. This book
strictly concerns itself with the core ideas that form the
geometric backbone of calculus.
This book introduces elementary probability through its history,
eschewing the usual drill in favour of a discussion of the problems
that shaped the field's development. Numerous excerpts from the
literature, both from the pioneers in the field and its
commentators, some given new English translations, pepper the
exposition. First, for the reader without a background in the
Calculus, it offers a brief intuitive explanation of some of the
concepts behind the notation occasionally used in the text, and,
for those with a stronger background, it gives more detailed
presentations of some of the more technical results discussed in
the text. Special features include two appendices on the graphing
calculator and on mathematical topics. The former begins with a
short course on the use of the calculator to raise the reader up
from the beginner to a more advanced level, and then finishes with
some simulations of probabilistic experiments on the the
calculator. The mathematical appendix likewise serves a dual
purpose. The book should be accessible to anyone taking or about to
take a course in the Calculus, and certainly is accessible to
anyone who has already had such a course. It should be of special
interest to teachers, statisticians, or anyone who uses probability
or is interested in the history of mathematics or science in
general.
