proofs by induction, contradiction, logic, calculus proofs etc.
Proof strategies (induction, contradiction, etc.) with practice
I learned basic intro to proofs like techniques and introduction to set theory.
It meets on fridays and the information is mostly pretty basic.
Definitely doesn't hurt if you aren't familiar with proofs 1 Columbia University: Arts & Sciences Fall 2022 Course: MATHUN2005_001_2022_3-INTRODUCTIONTOMATHEMATICSPROOFS : MATHUN2005_001_2022_3 - INTRODUCTION TO MATHEMATICS PROOFS Instructor: Mu-Tao Wang
Syntax and structure for proof writing. Made writing proofs way less daunting.
I'm not a math major and the highest level of math I took before this class was CALC III, so I wasn't really able to follow. However, I see other students in the class engaging with the class well and it seems like they're having a productive time here. Most people are taking some level of analysis (eg modern algebra) alongside this class but I wouldn't think that's completely necessary.
Please take this course if you are serious about majoring in math. 1 Columbia University: Arts & Sciences Spring 2024 Course: MATHUN2005_001_2024_1-INTRODUCTIONTOMATHEMATICSPROOFS : MATHUN2005_001_2024_1 - INTRODUCTION TO MATHEMATICS PROOFS Instructor: Mu-Tao Wang
