calculus refreshers, free textbooks online Message #1 Posted by bill duncan on 8 Mar 2004, 1:24 p.m. I used to love calculus. That was close to thirty years ago however, and my "calculus neurons" have not been excercised much since then. I'm assuming that there might be a few of us around and might appreciate some refreshers. There was a link posted on slashdot.org today with a review of five "free" text books available online. With all the fancy hardware most of us have, it might be fun to excercise some of those old neurons and calculator keys which have fallen into disuse... Cheers! http://books.slashdot.org/books/04/03/04/028253.shtml Edited: 8 Mar 2004, 1:31 p.m.
