Calculus and Ordinary Differential Equations (Modular Mathematics)
Professor Pearson's book starts with an introduction to the area and an explanation of the most commonly used functions. It then moves on through differentiation, special functions, derivatives, integrals and onto full differential equations. As with other books in the series the emphasis is on using worked examples and tutorial-based problem solving
to gain the confidence of students.
Contents:
Introduction * Functions * Functions and their graphs * Linear approximation * Differentiation * Some special functions * Derivatives and graph sketching * The antiderivative * The definite integral * Introduction to differential equations * Future developments * Index.
Brief Description:
Calculus is a core topic in an undergraduate mathematics degree and is also taught to other physical science students. This text begins with an explanation of commonly-used functions and then goes on to full differential equations. It includes worked examples and tutorial-based problem solving.
