Description
This is a University Level course on Selected Topics in Advanced Calculus/Real Analysis with a major focus on WRITING PROOFS
Note: Advanced Calculus(aka Real Analysis) is typically considered the HARDEST course a mathematics major will take.
This course is a step above a general mathematics course. Students should have familiarity with writing proofs and mathematical notation.
Basically just,
1) Watch the videos, and try to follow along with a pencil and paper, take notes!
2) Try to learn to write the proofs as I do. If you understand the proofs then you have learned a great deal. If you can write the proofs on your own then you have really graduated to the next level.
3) Repeat!
If you finish even 50% of this course you will know A LOT of Advanced Calculus and more importantly your level of mathematical maturity will go up tremendously!
Advanced Calculus is a beautiful yet notoriously difficult subject to learn and teach. I hope you enjoy watching these videos and working through these problems as much as I have
Who this course is for:
- Math Majors
- Anyone with a strong desire to learn higher level mathematics
