Aims
The main goal of the course is to explain the basic principles
and methods of calculus. The emphasis is put on handling the practical use of these methods for solving specific tasks.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
Classes are compulsory (presence at lectures, however, will not be controlled), absence at numerical classes has to be excused.
