Textbook is not helpful at all. Some functions don't work, like the appendix section fails quite a bit. Gives proofs where they are unnecessary, yet skips over proofs where they are very necessary, as in the summation formulas. Bs book based off of memorization rather than learning how to derive. Could be made better by changing its format to being more like pearson. Very unsatisfied.Update: This was an experience with larson calculus. Still VERY UNSATISFIED. The book misses the helpfulness of a normal textbook in having the information laid out in a linear fashion without skipping it. I never use online textbooks via cengage, because it cuts out useful information.
