Calculus for grandmas

<p>I am reading a&nbsp;<a href="https://betterexplained.com/calculus/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">really cool book&nbsp;</a>that teaches you an intuitive approach to calculus, and one of the exercises in it asks you to describe a concept in a &ldquo;grandma-friendly way&rdquo;, so here&rsquo;s how I&rsquo;d put it! I am going to try and use different analogies, rather than the ones from the book.</p> <p><em>Let&rsquo;s try to derive the area of a circle.</em></p> <p>Calculus is like kaleidoscope; when you first look into it, you see a certain kind of pattern, but after you shake it and look into it again, you see a different kind of pattern.</p> <p>It&rsquo;s about a pattern rearranging itself into a different pattern.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@nithikaa/calculus-for-grandmas-21457afcff7b"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
