Differential calculus is a subfield of calculus that focuses on the study of derivatives and differentials. It involves the use of limits, derivatives, and differentials to analyze functions and their behavior. The concept of differential calculus was first introduced by Sir Isaac Newton and German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in the late 17th century. Since then, it has become a crucial tool in various fields, including physics, engineering, economics, and computer science.
