    Leibniz discovered calculus on his own without intervention from newton, also probably before newton, also his notation is basically what we use today.

    newton looked at calculus from a physical pov, velocity – acceleration.

    Leibniz came from more of a ‘number theory’ perspective, (although i dont believe that term would have existed) this is why his formulations covered a wider field of numbers.

    please correct me if im wrong someone :3
