Homework Statement:: Recommend PDF books
Relevant Equations:: .

Hi, I'm a second-year physics student and my uni doesn't have any study material in the syllabus. Only lectures. I want to learn more.
Can you recommend to me a good mathematics pdf book that is about calculus?
General topics: limits, derivatives, integrals, matrix, tensor (in the future).

Thanks.

FYI, if you are a second year physics student and do not know integral and differential calculus you are probably behind.
