These course notes were written and have been provided voluntarily for many years by Prof. Leah Keshet (UBC Math). They have been based on material she developed and taught in Math 102. They are being updated over time. These notes are provided for all interested in learning. Copyrights are reserved by Keshet. Last update: September, 2017. (A list of known errors appears below)
Hard copies
You can buy a printed paper copy of this material from Copiesmart on University Boulevard.
Address: Copiesmart, #103 5728 University Blvd. Tel: 604-222-3189, 604-222-3194. Call first to see whether they are in stock, or need to have more printed.
Supplements
- Earth's energy balance
- Fitting data - least squares
- Optimal foraging and other repeated processes
- Numerical integration
- Degrees or radians - why you should always use radians
Additional references
- Stewart's Calculus: Early Transcendentals is available at the UBC bookstore and can be found secondhand as it is used for a number of other first year calculus courses on campus. It does not cover all the topics we cover in this course and covers some topics we do not cover but there is a significant overlap and, for some topics, especially the basic ones, you might find useful worked examples.
- CLP Calculus, written by several UBC faculty members, is a free online textbook with accompanying book of exercises, including hints and fully worked-out solutions.
- Paul's online notes, written by Prof. Paul Dawkins at Lamar University provides a good, free and online resource for a standard calculus course.
