Can you recommend a introductory calculus book that builds it up from dual numbers?
- zozbot234 4y agoYou could try Calculus made easy by S. P. Thompson.
- enriquto 4y agoThe Silvanus P. Thompson book suggested by the sibling comment is lovely and very clear. For a more algebraic treatment, and its important applications to automatic differentiation, I'd suggest starting with the relevant wikipedia articles: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_differentiation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_differentiation
