Abstract
When I studied algebra, I studied ALGEBRA. When I studied geometry, I studied GEOMETRY. But when I studied calculus, I was informed - in no uncertain terms -- the subject was THE CALCULUS. I may not know how to integrate any more, but I'm a whiz at differentiating THE use of THE definite article.
