Learning Calculus

I hope this doesn''t qualify as a homework question, but I was wondering if there were any good websites for learning calulus. I searched google and yahoo with ''calculus'' and ''calculus tutorial'', but all I got was those lame ''put in a function and watch the derivative come out'' sites. Does anyone know of any good online calculus tutorials/references? No, HTML is not an OO language.

I tried to teach myself calculus over the summer last year.
I used a bad book to do it, so all I picked up were a few concepts.

I got plenty of books however, so I now have a small calc library lol.

Try the Larson-Hostetler book, standard ed.
Also, Protter-Morrey`s calc 1 is decent.

I prefer the Larson-Hostler out of the books I`ve seen.

Online, when I need a question answered I hit MathWorld.
Rather confusing, but after awhile you learn stuff from it.

I really do recomend a book.
You can pick them up at local used bookstores for reasonable prices.

If I have unanswerable Qs, I usually bum the solution from dudes in my calc class. :-D

I`ll answer questions re calc if you are to email me as well.

I''ll let this thread stay open. The question was reasonable. You weren''t looking for the answer to a problem, which is really where I draw the line. Its perfectly fine to ask for links to good learning resources here, .

Gee, thanks Master !!! (??)

I''m currently taking Calculus in High School and I love it. It''s very interesting. We just finished a unit on solving Trig equations. It took me like half an hour to do one question and it was so amazing when I finished it...hehehe

You''ll get over it. My maths course is 75% calculus, and it gets very tiring. Although what I''m doing now isn''t hard at all, which is good ( solving 2nd order diff. eqs. ).

Death of one is a tragedy, death of a million is just a statistic.

If at first you don't succeed, redefine success.

Hi, I was just looking for the same thing yesterday, so I went to Google, typed "Calculus Tutorial" and pretty much the first thing that came up was this:
http://www.karlscalculus.org/calculus.html
I think its good, explains everything well.

Hey man, I don''t wanna sound like a queer or nothin'' but i think unicorns kick ass! -> Orgasmo.
