Yes, you need to know about integration to understand the central limit theorem, or to do any statistics with continuous values. But most of the time spent in calculus class is not learning what limits, derivatives, and integrals are. It's mostly learning how to take a function defined as some algebraic expression and finding the limit, derivative, or integral as an algebraic expression. How many jobs in science involve pushing around algebraic expressions? |

Most engineering stuff. SW is an exception because SW testing is more about: if the input value can be any int value but customer requires that the function , when given 5 as input returns 3 as output then the function is tested only with 3 as input.
