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, [[derivative|differential]] calculus and [[integral|integral]] calculus, that are related by the [[fundamental theorem of calculus]].
