3. 微积分的创立 微积分 (Calculus) 是微分学 (Differential calculus) 和积分学 (Integral calculus) 的总称， 它是由牛顿与 莱布尼兹在研究物理和几何的过程中总结前人的经 验，于十七世纪后期建立起来的。 牛顿 [ 英国 ] (Isaac Newton) 1642—1727 莱布尼兹 [ 德国 ] (G.W.Leibniz) 1646—1716

4. 关于牛顿 牛顿的三大成就：  流数术（微积分）  万有引力定律  光学分析的基本思想 我不知道在别人看来，我是什么样的人；但在我 自己看来，我不过就象是一个在海滨玩耍的小孩，为 不时发现比寻常更为光滑的一块卵石或比寻常更为美 丽的一片贝壳而沾沾自喜，而对于展现在我面前的浩 瀚的的真理的海洋，却全然没有发现。 —— 牛顿

5. 1. Introduction One of central ideas of calculus is the notion of derivative. The derivative originated from a problem in geometry, that is, the problem of finding the tangent line at a point of a curve. It was soon found that it also provides a way to calculate velocity and, more generally, the rate of change of a function. These problems contain the essential features of the derivative concept and may help to motivate the general definition of derivative which is given in this section.
