- Integer Calculus: (230608) Integer calculus is also called discrete calculus, and quantum calculus. All these names reflect the primary difference between standard calculus and this new calculus: classical calculus is 'continuous', integer calculus is discrete. It turns out the standard calculus is an approximation of integer calculus that is best at very small intervals. Our physics routinely deals with very many (but finite) very small (but discrete) objects, such as electrons. Perhaps the new calculus is a better fit for some of our physics ...
