Calculus is cool I barely made through differential equations though that shit is tough but still pretty cool. As for the guy that said fuck math you wouldn't be browsing the internet and doing lots of other cool stuff without it heh you would probably be living under a tree.

Omni, limits are getting really close without getting there, or the behavior at that point. Like kids daring each other to get closer to a hole in the roof, each can get a little closer, but can't get far enough to fall. You get closer and closer and closer and closer.....
Calculus is like the reward for taking all that math before. It's where it starts to get very beautiful and amazingly elegant.
Calc III is really fun 3-D stuff. Multivariate is cool too. Linear Algebra is way more fun then I thought it would be, matrices kick ass.
DiffEq is cool, I wish I could take more, but I'd have to rob Bill Gates to afford a university education, and DiffEq is as far as Jr. College goes.

I have always hated math. Thats why I went into biological sciences. In the past 11 years I've taken a basic stats course twice and nothing else (thankfully).
I'm definetly not a numbers guy.

the deeper u get into math the more u can see it in nature like when i am trippin on shrooms i can really see how everything is so systematic and developed mathmatically theres these laws that govern everything we see and they can all be interpreted using math man i love just eatin psycadelix and contemplating the numbers that rule us all

Here's a question for you all. What's the probability of a 4 card straight? I have completed calculus based physics, calc 1,2,3, and discrete math!!! I'm in another phase of my life for getting thru those courses.

as in shuffling the deck and pulling the top card and gettin lets say an ace then the next 3 would also be aces then the probability of that is 3.69E-6 or .00000369 or .000369% i just finished my probablity course it was really rough, the prerequisite was calc III

there are only 4 of each card in a deck so its (4/52)(3/51)(2/50)(1/49)

As for the original post...
Look, anyone can be good at it, damn good. It just takes effort and more then anything else WANT.. it takes WANT to be good at it.
I personally hate it. It's just a bore and a half. Theres nothing interesting about some number plus some number equals some bullshit and if you don't put time and effort into understanding why your failing this fucking class...
yeee the hell with it.

Pretty much everybody takes calculus in highschool in Sweden and its fucking useless. I dont think i have ever had the need to do derivatives or something after working technical jobs for 10 years.
Fuck even philosophy has been more useful.
Also if you want to pretend you are smart stop typing things like " wut a fool" and "ur" Maybe you should take English lit or something.

antiPock, I love that you have Euler's Identity in your signature.
That is such a beautiful identity, relating the five most important constants in math like that. I'd really love to take complex analysis. The way things curve on the real-imaginary plane is way too cool. Of course there is Mandelbrot's z=z^2+C | C=A+iB , and the Julia set mapping on the r-i plane.
I started a lawnmower with calculus once. I couldn't get the thing to start, no matter how hard I pulled. Then I remembered Faraday's law, the voltage generated by the magneto was -(N d(phi)/dt), the number of coil turns multiplied by DERIVATIVE of the magnetic flux strength with respect to time.
So I realized faster wasn't what I needed, it was more instantaneous change, so I pulled hard then jammed the blade into a really tall clump of grass to create a high derivative, then pulled up quickly to free the blade, and it started up!
