Syllabus

The syllabus for this course is entirely determined by the classnotes and assigned homework. The question of whether any given topic is part of the syllabus is resolved by determining whether it occurs anywhere in the classnotes or homeworks.

Texts

The primary `text' for this course is the classnotes provided below. The course is an introduction to calculus and there are many books which cover the same ground and which would be suitable for supplementary reading. A typical example of such a book would be Thomas's Calculus (10th ed.), Addison-Wesley-Longman


Homeworks

Calculus homework will be assigned throughout the year, once every fortnight during term. It is important that you attempt the homework yourself before attending the related practical. In turn, before you attempt the homework you should study the relevant sections of the class lecture notes, until you have a good understanding both of the examples treated there and of the underlying concepts.
