I think by "regular calculus" it is meant simple derivatives and integrations. Regular calculus would be first year calculus probably not including multi-variable calculus or calculus of variations or vector calculus. Wikipedia gives a good explanation of calculus. If you want to sound smart, call it "The Calculus". It is the study of the rate of change (how things change, in relation to other things, often time) In most Universities, regular calculus are the standard analysis of Calculus, concentrating more on the application of it rather than the concept. in comparison is either called "advanced calculus" or in my U, "Honours Calculus" which takes analysis to a whole new level. Both first year course, but the advanced one concentrates on the understanding of concepts, theorems rather than applications alone. It comes in the form of "mathematical proof". Regular Calculus does proofs too, but not as often. --------------------------------------------- Regular calculus is most probably calculus taught in high school or university level, which is simple, mostly single-variable calculus. But then, there are also different calculi called non-Newtonian calculi. These are the non-standard, non-regular calculi, in which different operators are defined. For example, "regular calculus" might mean an additive calculus (where the integral is defined by adding up extremely small pieces), while an integral in multiplicative calculus might involve multiplying infinitely many pieces close to 1.
Some high schools have a class called "math analysis" which is before calculus, so yes. To mathematicians, however, "analysis" is a synonym for "modern" calculus, and as such, there are classes usu. taught at universities with a similar name, but far beyond basic calculus.
Calculus is a branch of mathematics which came from the thoughts of many different individuals. For example, the Greek scholar Archimedes (287-212 B.C.) calculated the areas and volumes of complex shapes. Isaac Newton further developed the notion of calculus. There are two branches of calculus which are: differential calculus and integral calculus. The former seeks to describe the magnitude of the instantaneous rate of change of a graph, this is called the derivative. For example: the derivative of a position vs. time graph is a velocity vs. time graph, this is because the rate of change of position is velocity. The latter seeks to describe the area covered by a graph and is called the integral. For example: the integral of a velocity vs. time graph is the total displacement. Calculus is useful because the world is rarely static; it is a dynamic and complex place. Calculus is used to model real-world situations, or to extrapolate the change of variables.
Calculus was invented, or developed, independently by Newton and by Leibniz.

That 'thing' is called Calculus.
It is called a formula.

The Latin word calculus means "pebble". It is still used this way in medicine, where "calculus" can be used to refer to a kidney stone or gallstone, and by extension to the mineral buildup on teeth also called "tartar".The mathematical term "calculus" derives from the ancient use of pebbles as counters on counting tables (abacuses).
Issac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz are the co-discovers of this system of mathematical analysis.
According to Wikipedia, his main manuscript on calculus, which he called fluxions, was published in October, 1666. He was 2 months short of 24 years of age at the time.
The theory discovered between Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz was the development of calculus. Both Newton and Leibniz independently developed this mathematical system to describe and analyze change and motion, laying the foundation for modern calculus.
Gottfried Leibniz is called the father of integral calculus.
