is this section dead or something? no new posts in ages...
 
Physics news on Phys.org
it is not dead. of course we could help you by posting provocative remarks but it helps if you ask a question.

he who asks if god is dead may have stopped praying.
 


Calculus is definitely not dead, in fact, it is still a very active and relevant subject in mathematics. While it may be true that there haven't been any new posts in this particular section for some time, it could simply be due to the fact that there are already a lot of resources and discussions available on this topic. Additionally, advances in technology and teaching methods have made it easier for students to access information and learn about calculus in different ways. So while this section may not have new posts, rest assured that calculus is still a vital part of mathematics and continues to be studied and used in various fields such as physics, engineering, economics, and more.
