Grant Sanderson introduces the core intuition behind calculus, showing how geometric problems lead naturally to derivatives, integrals, and the fundamental theorem.

Special thanks to these supporters: 3b1b.co/lessons/essence-of-calculus#thanks In this first video of the series, we see how unraveling the nuances of a simple geometry question can lead to integrals, derivatives, and the fundamental theorem of calculus.

I really appreciate those who do this, as it helps make the lessons accessible to more people. ------------------ 3blue1brown is a channel about animating math, in all senses of the word animate.
