: Re-establishes Part 1's results using formal axioms (ordered fields, completeness of the real line). It dives into topology on the real line, uniform convergence, infinite series/products, Taylor series, and the gamma function.
: The authors explicitly urge students to avoid calculators to ensure a deep understanding of basic manipulations.
: Review of real numbers (rational/irrational), absolute values, inequalities, and a "gentle" introduction to set theory using Cantor’s approach. It covers differential and integral calculus with many practical examples.
Detail the required for the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
: Since Part 2 rigorously proves what Part 1 introduces, treat Part 1 as your "how-to" phase and Part 2 as your "why it works" phase. Do not skip to Part 2 if you aren't comfortable with the manipulations in Part 1.
The volume is split into two distinct parts, covering 32 chapters in total. Focus : Building computational and intuitive foundations.
