Nonstandard calculus is a branch of mathematics that extends the traditional concepts of calculus by employing nonstandard analysis. The key idea is to use "infinitesimals," which are quantities that are closer to zero than any standard real number but are not zero themselves. This allows for new ways to handle limits, derivatives, and integrals. Nonstandard analysis was developed in the 1960s by mathematician Abraham Robinson.
