Calculus uses methods originally based on the summation of infinitesimal differences.

It includes the examination of changes in an expression by smaller and smaller differences.

Osnabrück Calculus

Mathematics for Applied Sciences (Osnabrück 2023-2024)/Part I is a course for beginners at the University of Osnabrück. It covers logical foundation, sets, mappings, algebraic structures like fields and polynomials, the basics of analysis like sequences, continuity, differentiability, primitive functions and the basics of linear algebra like vector spaces, bases, linear maps, eigenvalues. While course has been taught many times, this is a textbook -- not an online course. The lectures dealing with calculus are as follows.

Contents  Logic and argumentation Quantifiers and induction Sets and mappings Fields Complex numbers Polynomials Approximation and convergence Completeness Series Continuity Intermediate value theorem Exponential function Trigonometry Differentiability Mean value theorem The number  Taylor series Integration Fundamental theorem of calculus Rules for integration
