* Euler would require you to have functions that are $$C^\infty$$-smooth  
* Not everything that is $$C^\infty$$-smooth is ok for Euler

=== 6.4 The "Eulerian" notion of a function? ===
* Physics in trying to understand reality by approximating it.
=== 6.5 The rules of differentiation ===
* Armed with these few rules (and loads and loads of practice), one can become an "expert at differentiation" without needing to hae much in the way of actual understanding of why the rules work!
