    I always yearned to understand a practical reason to learn calculus. My teacher at college was a German woman that spoke English with a thick accent. Her joy for the course seemed self-evident, but she failed to ever share a real-world reason or application for what we were trying to learn. 45 years later,I still haven’t used what I “learned”, or ever came to understand why we did.
