Educational Aims
This module aims to provide a solid foundation understanding in calculus, which covers the area of functions, limits and continuity, odd and even functions, derivatives and solving problems related to differentiation.Learning Outcomes
1. Demonstrate understanding in function, domain, range, one-one function, inverse function and composition of functions
2. Demonstrate understanding on the meaning of limit of a function of two or more variables, undefined conditions of a functions and asymptote
3. Apply the transformations such as translation and stretching and to graph of basic functions
4. Sketch graphs / curves of rational and irrational functions with or without asymptotes
