Calculus is a [[mathematics|mathematical]] subject which studies limits, derivatives, integrals and infinite series.   
 
Calculus is used extensively in science and engineering to solve complex and expansive problems where [[algebra]] is insufficient. It builds on analytic geometry and mathematical analysis and includes two major branches, differential calculus and integral calculus, that are related by the fundamental theorem of calculus.
