derivative, nutshell: - algebraic: just change of coordinates from value domain to difference domain (which is best understood via discrete differences) - analytic: Taylor: 0th order / 1st order / etc. approx [What is actually taught? The Taylor POV: "zoom in on a function and it looks like a line" BTW, good use of calculator; can even do higher derivs (if kill linear term; look at cos)!] - higher dimensions no longer "deriv of function is function": it's a differential form (dually, vector field) [interestingly, integrals in higher dimensions are easier than derivs, b/c there's no new concept (just visualize higher dim): just chop domain higher dim'l derivs do require tricky concept of differential form] integral, nutshell: - take measure theory POV, with lower & upper: just bound below / bound above (equiv, approximate *function*) - works in higher dimensions too - my notation - infinities tricky (absolute convergence) - discrete POV: summing series - double/triple integrals are *computational tools* - can also integrate w/r/t *orientation* - other POV is to choose some point: this doesn't bound but does approximate, and can be made very good
