Oh, hey. Are you me? I am wrapping my time in CS grad program, and I also, never took calculus as a formal class.

Now, I will say, save machine learning/AI, calculus isn't really necessary; the world is completely discrete.

That being said, that doesn't mean that knowing calculus wouldn't _enhance_ your ability to understand and digest some of the more difficult reductions and proofs in, say, a theory of computation course.

I relied on "The Calculus Tutoring Handbook"[0]. I wanted a book that had answers to _all_ the exercises for confidence building purposes. The book goes slow and provides a great amount of detail -- the authors are pretty good at not hand-waving.

I also found \r\learnmath useful as a "I have a problem and can't ask anyone" site. They are really friendly.
