Course Description:
This course will provide an introduction to the Calculus which is mainly
focused on the evaluation of limits, computation of derivatives and integrals
of selected functions and some of their useful applications to the real world
problems are also included. The course starts by briefly reviewing basic
functions and its properties and ends by the topics of infinite sequences and
series which are important in the basic calculus.

Prerequisites: None
Class Schedule:
Lectures: Time and place (see your Booklet)
Exams: There are one uniform midterm exams and one final exam.
The final exam will be cumulative though with an emphasis on the
