The three concepts of calculus are derivative, definite integral, and limit.

A derivative is the slope at a certain point, the definite integral is the area of the graph above the x-axis, and the limit is the number y approaches as x approaches some number.

Derivative- using graph to find points closer and closer to the chosen point, using a data table to find the derivative.

Integral- getting area by counting boxes and using trapezoids

Limit- finding points by tracing graph with finger. This works with all graphs except step dicontinuity.

I am all good so far.
