Calculus: this is a fundamental element which describes change in dynamic situations and underlines the links between functions and graphs.

In practice this often means:

• taking limits of functions;

• differentiating functions;

• integrating functions.

Here we will see how to instruct a computer to carry out these techniques.

Important

In this chapter we will cover:

• Taking limits.

• Differentiating functions.
