/kloc-an important event in the development of mathematics around the 0/7th century.
/kloc-Around the 7th century, world-famous mathematicians included Kepler, Descartes, Fermat, Newton, Leibniz and Euler. The most important thing in this period is the birth of Calculus.

/kloc-In the second half of the 7th century, Newton and Leibniz completed the preparatory work involving many mathematicians and independently established calculus. Their starting point of establishing calculus is intuitive infinitesimal, and their theoretical foundation is not solid. It was not until the19th century that Cauchy and Wilstrass established the limit theory, and Cantor and others established the strict real number theory that the discipline was rigorous.

Calculus is developed with practical application, and is more and more widely used in various branches of natural science, social science and applied science such as astronomy, mechanics, chemistry, biology, engineering and economics. In particular, the invention of computers is more conducive to the continuous development of these applications.

Everything in the objective world, from particles to the universe, is always moving and changing. Therefore, after introducing the concept of variables into mathematics, it is possible to describe the movement phenomenon in mathematics.

Due to the emergence and application of the concept of function and the needs of the development of science and technology, a new branch of mathematics has emerged after analytic geometry, which is calculus. Calculus plays a very important role in the development of mathematics. It can be said that it is the greatest creation in all mathematics after Euclidean geometry.
