How to Use the AP Calc AB Calculator
- Enter a function in the f(x) field. Use
^for exponents (e.g.,x^2 + 3*x + 2) and*for multiplication. - Choose an operation from the dropdown: Derivative, Definite Integral, Limit, or Riemann Sum (Left).
- Set the required inputs based on your operation:
- Derivative/Limit: Enter the point a (e.g., 2).
- Integral/Riemann Sum: Enter lower and upper bounds (e.g., 0 and 1).
- Limit: Optionally choose direction (Both sides, Left, or Right).
- Riemann Sum: Set the number of subintervals n (minimum 1).
- Click "Calculate" to see the result and step-by-step explanation below.
Note: All numeric inputs use decimal numbers (e.g., 2.5). The calculator uses numerical approximations (e.g., midpoint rule for integrals, symmetric difference for derivatives).

Frequently Asked Questions
It supports computing derivatives at a point, definite integrals (midpoint rule), two-sided and one-sided limits, and left Riemann sums.
Use JavaScript syntax: x^2 for x², 3*x for 3x, sin(x) for sine, etc. Use parentheses as needed.
The derivative uses a symmetric difference quotient with h = 1e-6.
