Happy Birthday Calculus!
330 years ago today, Gottfried Liebniz first demonstrated that integral calculus can be used to calculate the area under the graph of a function. In college I learned how to wrap a function around the x-axis and use integral calculus to find the volume of the resulting three-dimensional figure. Thanks Gottfriend!

There's gotta be a special circle of hell just for people who invented branches of math.
