Prerequisite: Math 12
Welcome to Calculus 12! You will learn about the four major concepts of calculus: the limit, the derivative, the definite integral and the indefinite integral. For each concept, you will learn the exact definition, have an intuitive understanding of it, be able to use the concept and apply it. You will learn about these concepts numerically, graphically, algebraically and verbally. Along the way, you will learn some of the history of calculus too.
*You need the following:
1.    Calculus 12: Concepts and Applications textbook (Rented)
2.    Graphing Calculator
