Description
Book Synopsis: This book is an introduction to the language and standard proof methods of mathematics. It is a bridge from the computational courses (such as calculus or differential equations) that students typically encounter in their first year of college to a more abstract outlook. It lays a foundation for more theoretical courses such as topology, analysis and abstract algebra. Although it may be more meaningful to the student who has had some calculus, there is really no prerequisite other than a measure of mathematical maturity.
Topics include sets, logic, counting, methods of conditional and non-conditional proof, disproof, induction, relations, functions, calculus proofs and infinite cardinality.
Details
Are you ready to take your understanding of mathematics to the next level? Look no further than the Book of Proof. This comprehensive book serves as a bridge between the computational courses you've already mastered and the more abstract world of theoretical math. Whether you're preparing for advanced courses in topology, analysis, or abstract algebra, this book will give you the foundation you need for success.
With its clear and concise language, the Book of Proof is accessible to all students with a measure of mathematical maturity. Don't worry about prerequisites – this book is designed to be a standalone resource. From sets and logic to counting and relations, each topic is explained in detail with easy-to-follow examples.
One of the standout features of the Book of Proof is its emphasis on proof methods. You'll learn both conditional and non-conditional proof techniques, allowing you to develop a solid understanding of how to construct and dissect mathematical arguments. Plus, the book covers induction, functions, calculus proofs, and even touches on infinite cardinality.
Don't miss out on the opportunity to enhance your mathematical knowledge and prepare yourself for the challenges ahead. Take the first step towards mastering mathematical proof – get your copy of the Book of Proof today!
