VII. Fill in the missing word – each word can be used only once.
The branch of mathematics referred to as calculus (or the calculus) is customarily divided
into two main parts, i.e. differential and integral calculus, although the techniques of
calculus also involve work with infinite sequences and series. In fact, calculus is merely a part
of a larger branch of mathematics that uses the same techniques. This subdivision of
mathematics is usually called analysis. The major theorems of calculus and the techniques
for applying its operations to problem solving are based on the concept of limit. The limit
concept is basic to the development of the two main operations of the calculus that are not
found in the elementary mathematics, namely differentiation and integration. In general,
differentiation is used to determine the instantaneous rate of change in one variable with
respect to another; that is, the limit of the rate of change as the time of the change
approaches zero. Similarly, integration is used to obtain the exact sum of an infinite number
of parts; that is, the limit of the sum as the number of parts increases without bound.
