The book explores concepts of limits of a function, limits of algebraic functions, applications and limitations for limits, and the algebra of limits. It also discusses methods for computing limits of algebraic functions, and explains the concept of continuity and related concepts in depth. This introductory submersion into differential calculus is an essential guide for engineering and the physical sciences students"--Provided by publisher.Differential calculusTextbooksCàlcul diferencialthubLlibres electrònicsthubDifferential calculusCàlcul diferencial515/.33MAT005000bisacshRohde Ulrich L728646MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820116203321Introduction to differential calculus3999855UNINA
