Differential and Integral Calculus

This text is designed as a course of mathematics for higher technical
schools. It contains many worked examples that illustrate the theoretical
material and serve as models for solving problems.
The first two chapters "Number. Variable. Function" and "Limit.
Continuity of a Function" have been made as short as possible. Some of the
questions that are usually discussed in these chapters have been put in the third
and subsequent chapters without loss of continuity. This has made it possible
to take up very early the basic concept of differential calculus - the
derivative - which is required in the study of technical subjects. Experience has
shown this arrangement of the material to be the best and most convenient
for the student.
A large number of problems have been included, many of which
illustrate the interrelationships of mathematics and other disciplines. The problems
are specially selected (and in sufficient number) for each section of the course
thus helping the student to master the theoretical material. To a large extent,
this makes the use of a separate book of problems unnecessary and extends
the usefulness of this text as a course of mathematics for self-instruction.
