Coauthor: Why don't you clean up your LaTeX preamble? Me: My LaTeX preamble is a relic of struggle and battles of the past, a pandora box of chaos, a constant reminder that order is often taken as granted, but uncertainty and confusion are the true nature of science.

Is there a database somewhere of questions that are good for Calculus quizzes/exams? I’m currently using my old textbooks but it would be sick if there was just a huge list somewhere separated by the type of questions one may be looking for

Eventually applications might be found
A picture of a 5-holed coffee pot pouring coffee into 3 mugs. The mugs are captioned "pure math". The coffee pouring into the mugs are captioned "abstraction", "rigor", and "generality". The other 2 holes, not above any cups, are captioned "real world applications".

Left: Luigi wearing sunglasses being a DJ, seems happy. Above the picture is the integral of 1/(x^5) dx=-1/(4x^4)+c. Right: Luigi on the ground with his hands on his face. Above the picture is the integral of 1/(x^5+1) dx and the answer is two lines long.
