Prerequisites and a short description

• Prerequisite: high level of performance in MATH 221-222, 223-224, or 192 and 294 and familiarity with proofs
• Description: Introduction to the rigorous theory underlying calculus, covering the real number system and functions of one variable. Based entirely on proofs. The student is expected to know how to read and, to some extent, construct proofs before taking this course. Topics typically include construction of the real number system, properties of the real number system, continuous functions, differential and integral calculus of functions of one variable, sequences and series of functions.
