>Limits? Literally just values that the function "wants to go to" but can't
>Derivative? Slope at a point of a function (aka when the "run" part of "rise/run" wants to go to zero but can't, thus the need for limits).
>Integral? Area under the curve of a function (or if you want to define it Riemann-style: the sum of an infinite number of products, the product being the function's value and a "width" that also wants to go to zero).
>How to solve integrals? Substitution, trig substitution, integration by parts.
>Fundamental theorem of calculus? Differentiation is the inverse of integration.
>Linear algebra? Literally just solving systems of equations more efficiently using matrices and Gaussian elimination (also knowing that an invertible matrix is a very special thing with very special properties)
>Set theory? Some infinities are "bigger" than other infinities, wow thank you Cantor very illuminating
>First-order logic? Proof by contradication's all you need
>Partial derivatives? Derive with respect to one variable and treat all others as constant.
>Gradient? Vector field of vectors that point in the direction of greatest increase for a multivariable function.
>Double and triple integrals? Literally just the concept of "area under curve" except extended to volume and such.
>Series convergence? Just ratio test bro lmao
>Taylor series? Literally just "slope at a tangent line" approximation shit, except better.
>Order of a function? A function for which your given function never surpasses, given enough time.
>Differential equations? Just Laplace transform and convolution integral bro
Anon, please don't tell me you unironically find math after pre-calc difficult in any way?
