MAT 360, Advanced Calculus
Fall 2001
This is an introductory course in Mathematical Analysis. We will examine
basic notions of single-variable calculus from a more sophisticated
point of view and generalize them, when appropriate, to metric spaces.
At the same time, the course will provide you with an opportunity to
get acquainted to rigorous mathematical reasoning through accurate proofs.
