It covers objects important to almost all areas of mathematics, so from a mathematical point of view it is absolutely essential to learn about the things covered in a calculus course. And of course, if studied correctly (in a strictly logical and mathematical way), your first course in calculus may significantly increase your ability to think critically, logically, and systematically, which should be important to you even if you ignore mathematics in the future (which is nevertheless hard to do in almost any technical field).

No, not really.
There are several meanings to the word 'calculus.' The plural for calculus is 'calculi.' There is no plural for the calculus we use in mathematics.
My Calculus class is in third period. Calculus is a noun
Im still taking Integral Calculus now, but for me, if you dont know Differential Calculus you will not know Integral Calculus, because Integral Calculus need Differential. So, as an answer to that question, ITS FAIR
there was no sure answer about who started calculus but it was Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz who founded calculus because of their fundamental theorem of calculus.
