Differential Calculus
A function is a relationship between a set of inputs and a set of possible outputs, where each input is related to exactly one output. This concept is crucial in calculus, as functions are used to describe how quantities change and interact. Understanding functions allows you to analyze trends, solve equations, and apply methods like Newton's Method to find roots or optimize values in various mathematical contexts.
