That infernal + C when doing differentials got me often. So simple, integral even.

I admittedly got a D in calculus (because my advisor said I didn't need algebra for STEM since I got an A in regular algebra) but I don't remember +C being a thing.

Would that be something learned in calc 2?

Yeah integrals get a +c because any added constants get removed when you do a derivative

A great big fuck you to Mr. S, who gave me 0 points every time I forgot it.

Well it would be weird if they gave you bonus points for it /s

We had a university joke about a group of students walking down the town drunk on students holyday (like marines on their holiday), challenging everyone with a trivial integration problem, and then beating them if they forget the constant
