| Karl's Calculus Tutor
This is a searchable tutorial on proofs with guided exercises in which hard problems are solved by answering a series of easy questions. Some exercises require you to formulate proofs. Four interactive calculators with tutorials allow you to solve n equations, plot functions and generate plot images of functions. Tutorials cover limits, continuity, derivatives, related rates, optimization, L'Hopital's rule, integration, etc. This site is unique because the author, Karl Hahn, uses parables and metaphors to illustrate abstract concepts.
