Very very hard to define, but its the study of infinitesimal stuff. You learn to calculate exact speeds/velocities, volumes of random stuff like a lamp base, and many others; very useful for physics, economics. I probably shamed the beauty of Calculus with my poor definition, but its kind of hard to explain. If you want a brief introduction, I recommend Calculus for Dummies or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus .
