    Don't feel bad. I didn't understand it 45 years ago, and I still don't understand it today.

    As someone who is taking calc 2 rn, yes I sometimes feel totally lost. But you eventually watch enough yt videos and you figure it out, just gotta put the work in and keep going

    Calc 2 was challenging sometimes. Right now multivariable calculus is kicking my ass rn

      Hang in there, brother. I finally passed calc three last semester after taking it twice. You've got this.

      Multivar was gorgeous!! I don't remember a lick of it at this point, but I don't remember sitting in class and realizing where it could come in handy. Cartesian for 3 axis milling. And polar coordinates for turning on a lathe. There are some fun things you can do on certain...particularly multi axis...CNCs

    People are clueless multivariable calculus is the best thing that happened to them. Wait for measure theory and complex/real/vector analysis😭

    Yeah I was definitely lost at that time.

    Failed Calc 2 three times. Nailed it the fourth time…

    For my part I had to retake Calc 2 to pass it. I think what mattered for me was a different professor teaching it. I just could not grasp many of the concepts for the first teacher.

    It would be good to explain what is Calc 1, 2... for non-americans. We have analysis, complex analysis, functional analysis, so I'm really interested what is calculus 1,2

      Calculus 1 and 2 form the entire college course of single variable calculus, with each being a semester long. Calc2 expands upon the concepts learned in calc1: there are new integration techniques (partial fractions, trig sub, parts, etc), parametric and polar equations, as well as sequences and series at the end.

      in calc 2, first we review volumes of revolution and projections, then go over new integration techniques like trig integrals, by parts, and dealing with improper integrals (for example, integrating between 0 and infinity), then move onto infinite series, testing for divergence/convergence, taylor/maclaurin series and all that jazz, and finally, calculus in polar coordinates and touching on parametric equations.

    in my experience schools are terrible at teaching math, you can spend years learning something that you could learn in a week and still not understand ot

      Cal refers to calculas, it is a really cool field of maths, you should try to learn about it!

      Calculus is the study of limits, derivatives, integrals, infinite series, etc.

      For people from Russia etc it called ≈ mathematic analysis and linear algebra.
