The results of study history of mathematics

Every people doing activities always have the purposes and results that they want to reached. It is like we read a book, our purpose is to expand our knowledge.
I’m study the history of mathematics, I search and collect information from some sources. The one is I got from the internet. Study result which I got are
CALCULUS
Do you feel that calculus is difficult? Yes, I do.
We look the development of calculus. The calculus development can mentioned by 3 periods, that are ancient period, middle period, and modern period.
1. Ancient period
Some ideas about calculus integral was appear, but didn’t developed well and systematic. Archimedes develop idea about account volume (prominent function of calculus integral) farther and create ‘heuristic’ closed to calculus integral.
2. Middle period
The mathematician of India, Aryabhata, used unlimited small concept in 499 and expressioned astronomy problem in basic diferensial similarity. In this period, calculus develop more progressive than the ancient period.
3. Modern period
Independent discovery happened in beginning 17th century in Japan by mathematician like Seki Kowa. In Europe, mathematicians like John Wallis and Isaac Barrow give new innovation in calculus. In 1668 also James Gregory proved a specific problem from basic theorem of calculus. Leibniz and Newton are the contributor of calculus.
Since that time, many mathematicians that gave contributions to development of calculus. Calculus became the general topic in Senior High School and University nowadays. And mathematicians in the world give contribution to development of calculus continually.
