A good Calculus tutorial?

[Hyper-dimension]

Since all of my books are in storage 1,000 miles away, I'm trying to find a good self-teaching guide online. Everything I've found so far is sloppy and disorganized. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. I'm not looking for anything dumbed down, just something concise and fucking organized. Something that isn't a pain in the ass to navigate.

As I've never studied the subject, a review wouldn't be terribly helpful.

This is one of the few books I managed to keep with me, and I need an understanding of Calculus before I begin reading:

Thanks for any input.

Jesus Christ, they have that tome (gravitation) at my local Borders; I think you might need more than a calculus tutorial to grasp the mathematics in there.

so youre looking a book about the fundamentals of calculus?

i dont know of any at that level, but if you have questions, a lot of us can help you.

i might write some basic calculus stuff later for you

It will (probably) take a long time for you to learn calc and actually know what the fuck to do... its not really a "tutorial" subject unless you count a college textbook as a tutorial

I would like a book, but I don't have the money to buy a text, nor do I have a library close-by. Baton Rouge is an hour away.

I need an online self-teaching guide.

puzld, I realize the material is post-graduate level, but I have to start somewhere. And yes, I got the book at Borders.

I'm not concerned with the inherent difficulty of the math, I just need a good place to teach myself. Mantikore, any help would be appreciated, but I need a site so I can learn at my own pace, and perhaps return here for advice if, by chance, I find myself stuck on something.

While I'm at it, anyone know of any good mathematics software, for doing calculations, graphing, etc. I have a TI-89T, but I've been interested in a PC-based program.

i had trouble with calculus and i found this awesome harvard grad who teaches online

search "khan academy" on youtube and check out his videos

[lolocaust]

just torrent some math books, I just got a whole bunch of linear algebra books because the required one for the course I'm in sucks balls, and it's great. if I don't like one of the books, I have at least 30 more to choose from right in front of me. really the only way you're gonna get all the explanations / examples you need is through a textbook.

There's also an unbelievable amount of good information on wikipedia.

thanks, this could be really help since I'm in Calc BC (Calc 2, i think)

I had to try to grasp calculus back in High school, with a teacher out having a baby, and a sub that didn't explain anything, he just worked problems. I found a book called "The Calculus Lifesaver," this book is very well written and helped a lot. But from all the people I've talked to, Calculus is one of those that you just have to keep working forward and then it eventually clicks. I tried a quick search for a torrent of it, but I couldn't find one, I'll keep looking though. Other than that, yeah, just download a bunch of math text books and try to work through them.
