It is argued that much of the work was carried out by Gottfried Leibnitz, a contemporary. In very broad terms, Leibnitz developed the theoretical aspects while Newton worked on applications in physics.
No, but Newton and Liebnitz argued for years about which one of them developed the Calculus. There is some evidence that Liebnitz had seen Newton's early work on the Calculus. The fact is, Liebnitz rushed to publish his ideas, and Newton finally published his years later, although he did mention his Calculus as a sidenote in a much earlier publication. To Newton we can give thanks for inventing analytical fluxion type of the Calculus, and to Liebnitz the differential/integral type of the Calculus.
There wasn't one single person involved in the creation of calculus. Many people had their contributions. Oftentimes, however, Sir Isaac Newton is given credit for "inventing" calculus. he also coined the term.
Newton and Leibniz simultaneously and independently invented calculus.
There is only one, Newton.
Isaac Newton contributed ideas to the fields of mathematics, physics and astronomy. One of his most famous contributions was to the understanding of gravity. His inventions include calculus, which he co-invented with Gottfried Leibniz.
There is no historical evidence to support the claim that Sir Isaac Newton sucked his thumb. It is likely a myth or misunderstanding. Newton was a highly intelligent scientist and mathematician, known for his contributions to physics and calculus.
Newton unlocked the key to change - force, and created a way to describe change calculus. ! Change is the key to creation and the key to change is force. Newton's 1st Law is No force, no change. This Law is fundamental to the operation of the Universe. Gravity is the one example that shows the universal scope of force. No force, no evolution. Newton's contributions are of the first order and unmatched.
one founder of calculus is isaac newton
They were many and varied. He invented the reflecting telescope and calculus. Devised the laws of gravity, made significant contributions to optics. Was Master of the Mint
Yes. He also had help from one person

Liebniz. The main issue was whether Liebniz had invented calculus independently of Newton, or merely come up with a (frankly rather better, and in fact the one we still use today) symbolism to express concepts already developed by Newton.
