Calculus is Algebra.
Hatcher, William S.
American Mathematical Monthly, v89 n6 p362-70 Jun-Jul 1982
The view promoted is calculus can be reduced to totally algebraic manipulation through use of elementary notions and facts of ring theory, which enable one to do calculus in the hyperreal number system. This approach holds promise of producing increased student conceptual sophistication and manipulative ability. (MP)
