Connection Between Differentiation and Integration (Fundamental Theorem of Calculus)

Summary:
・Differentiation tells you how a function is changing at any point, and the result is a rate of change (slope).
・Integration tells you the total accumulation of a function over an interval, and the result is often related to area under the curve.

In simple terms:

・Differentiation is about breaking things down to see the rate of change.
・Integration is about putting things together to see the total amount or area.
