Distributions Calculus Textbook. In 1696 L'Hôpital published his book Analyse des Infiniment Petits pour l'Intelligence des Lignes Courbes ("Infinitesimal calculus with applications to curved lines"). This was the first textbook on infinitesimal and it presented the ideas of differential calculus and their applications to differential geometry of curves of in a lucid form and with numerous figures Analyse des Infiniment Petits pour l'Intelligence des Lignes Courbes

L'Hôpital's rule In calculus, l'Hôpital's rule also called Bernoulli's rule, uses derivatives to help evaluate limits involving indeterminate forms.calculusBernoulliderivativeslimits indeterminate forms The rule is named after the 17th-century French mathematician Guillaume de l'Hôpital, who published the rule in his textbook, the first textbook on differential calculus. However, it is believed that the rule was discovered by the Swiss mathematician Johann Bernoulli.French mathematicianGuillaume de l'Hôpitaldifferential calculusJohann Bernoulli

In its simplest form, l'Hôpital's rule states that for functions f and g which are differentiable on I \ { c }, where I is an open interval containing c :differentiable If , and exists, and for all x in I with x ≠ c, Then
