Course Objectives:
To develop the theoretical foundations of calculus; Preparation for advanced courses in probability, statistics, real analysis,  and applied mathematics.

Course Description:
Sets and functions, real topology in Rⁿ, continuity and uniform continuity of real valued functions of several variables., derivatives, the Riemann integral, metric spaces. Detailed proofs emphasized.     

Course Outline by Topical Areas:
Infinite Series of  Real Numbers. Infinite Series of  Functions. Real Valued Functions of Several Variables. Continuity and Partial Derivatives. Taylor's Formula. Vector Valued Functions of Several Variables. The Inverse Function Theorem. The Implicit Function Theorem. Jacobian and Hessian. Integrals of Functions of Several Variables. Introduction to Metric Spaces. Compact Sets and Continuous Functions in Metric Spaces.

We will cover Chapters 5-8 and 4.4, 4.5. This course emphasizes the theory of calculus, which means that it crosses the bridge from the original formulation of calculus by Newton and Leibniz to the full introduction of logical rigor, carried out over the course of the nineteenth century, which laid the basis for the branch of mathematics now known as analysis. Thus, the emphasis will be on the rigorous development of the theoretical basis of calculus. Most proofs will be given and required for the exams.

Computer Requirements
The use of CAS (computer algebra systems) packages such as  such as MATHEMATICA, Maple or Scientific Notebook is strongly encouraged. Some computer lectures in Scientific Notebook and Maple packages will be presented, and provided.
