Right in this post :slight_smile:

>I have NEVER defined the derivative in terms of a limit.

I didn't say you did, I said I did. D was defiend in terms of limit, T in terms of D, and you cry circular which is not it.

To be circular T is defined in terms of D, and D in terms of T, but it isn't. D is defined independently of T

>That's EXACTLY what YOU do in your bullshit MAINSTREAM calculus and it is CIRCULAR.

See, right here you do claim it is circular just like I said you do.

D defined in terms of limit
T defined in terms of D
Is not circular. It is a linear progression of definitions.

>Your drivel was nothing of the sort. You imagined that you were agreeing with your fellow asswipe Jean Pierre Messager (aka Python) and I made a fool of you yet again! LMAO.

You didn't, you did however manage to confirm in this post exactly what I said you did while denying it. That is quite foolish.
