# Calculus with Julia
`CalculusWithJulia.jl` is a package for a set of notes for learning [calculus](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus) using the `Julia` languge. The package contains some support functions and the files that generate the notes being read now.

Since the mid 90s there has been a push to teach calculus using many different points of view. The [Harvard](http://www.math.harvard.edu/~knill/pedagogy/harvardcalculus/) style rule of four says that as much as possible the conversation should include a graphical, numerical, algebraic, and verbal component. These notes use the programming language [Julia](http://julialang.org) to illustrate the graphical, numerical, and, at times, the algebraic aspects of calculus.

Many of the necessary computational skills needed for employing `Julia` successfully to assist in learning calculus are in direct analogy to concepts of mathematics that are first introduced in precalculus or prior. This precalculus *review*, covers some of the basic materials mathematically (though not systematically). More importantly it illustrates the key computational mechanics we will use throughout.
A quick rundown of the `Julia` concepts presented in this setion is in a [Julia overview](precalc/julia_overview.html).

To make edits to the documents directly, a pull request with the modified `*.jmd` files in the `CwJ` directory should be made. Minor edits to the `*.jmd` files should be possible through the GitHub web interface. In the footer of each page a pencil icon accompanying "suggest an edit" when clicked should cause the opening of the corresponding `*.jmd` file on GitHub for suggesting modifications. The html files will be generated independently, that need not be done.
