Learning Outcomes of the Course : Knows the concept of the Dedekind cut that forms the field of real numbers.
Knows the limit theorems in sequences.
Knows subsequences and the Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem.
Knows the Cauchy convergence criterion and that it is equivalent to the completeness of real numbers.
Knows the convergence of infinite series, and conditional and absolute convergence tests.
