Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to give a teaching comparison of fractional calculus and integer calculus. Another purpose of this paper is to help students to understand fractional calculus and integer calculus are highly unified. Starting from the integral order derivative of the elementary power function, the definition of Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative is given. With the theory of integral calculus such as integral mean value theory, Green formula and classical inequality, the fractional differential equations are transformed into integers order differential equation, the differences and relations between two kinds of calculus are expounded. Therefore, it is concluded that fractional derivative and integral derivative can be exchanged under certain conditions.
