Calculus

When Isaac laid the foundation of the Calculus the time was during the plague years, which hindered his studies for months. The calculus is termed as the Òmethod of flux ionsÓ was based on his crucial insight that the integration is just the inverse procedure to differating it. Taking differation as the basic operation, Isaac created a simple analytical method that unified a host of disparate techniques previously developed on a piece meal basis to deal with such problems as finding areas, tangents, the lengths of curves, and their maxima and minima. Even though Isaac could not fully justify his methods. Logical foundations for the calculus were not developed until the 19th century. Isaac receives all of the credit for creating and developing a powerful tool of problem solving and analysis in pure mathematics and physics. Isaac Barrow, ( a fellow of Trinity College) also a professor of mathematics at the University, was so impressed byNewtons achievements when he resigned his chair in 1669 to devote himself to theology, he also nominated Isaac for his place.
