I am looking for some good websites that explain how to apply differentiation, (i.e, differentiating an equation to work out a local minima or local maxima) integration and functions

1. First find the derivative of the function (dy/dx)
2. Take it equal to zero
3. You will get value(s) of x
4. Draw a number line and place those numbers on it.
5. Check for the positive and negative values between those numbers by substituting any number between the numbers on the number line in the dy/dx equation.
6. Place the positive and negative signs between the numbers on a number line.
7. Finally, the number that has a -ve sign on the left and +ve sign on the right on the number line is called relative min, AND
the number that has a +ve sign on the left and -ve sign on the right on the number line is called relative max.
If you getsame signs on both the sides, don't call it anything...

How do you apply the calculus? In very, very, very, very small pieces.
