multivariable/ linear calculus same thing?

<p>some say they are the same thing, others say that one is calculus 2 and the other calculus 3. which is right?</p>

<p>anyone care to answer? please.</p>

<p>would anyone know? im really confused.</p>

<p>Linear calc? Do you mean linear algebra? That's completely different than multivar: you could do one without knowing the other.</p>

<p>is multivariable the same as calculus 2?</p>

<p>^yes brah. why do u care?</p>

<p>No, they are different subjects.
I think the typical sequence is:
*Calc. 1 (Differential Calculus)
*Calc. 2 (Integral Calculus)
*Calc. 3 (Multivariable Calculus)
*Linear Algebra
*Differential Equations</p>

<p>At least that's the way I'm taking them...</p>

Where/what is calc 4?</p>

<p>i think after calc III is advanced Calc I and advanced Calc II</p>

I don't think we have a Calc 4 class...For UW, the calc sequence is three quarters long (math 124,125, and 126). Math 307(diff. eq.) and 318 (linear algebra) are after that. I think there's also advanced multivariable calc (math 324), but most of the classes after that are just for math majors...I would guess that other schools would be similar...</p>

<p>At the university I will be attending, there are calculus sequences (regular and honors), and, after one takes a year of that, one goes on to analysis. I am confused. So what exactly is covered in their "calculus"? It seems to be quite a bit (single variable and multivariable calculus, I believe).</p>

<p>There is no calc 4 class usually. The get new names like lin alg, diffy q's, and then on to real/complex analysis, number theory, etc.</p>

<p>Awsome! You guys rock! Thanks for answering- I've been wondering about that for a while.</p>
