18.100A Introduction To Analysis Fall 2012

This document provides an overview of the 18.100A Introduction to Analysis course offered at MIT in Fall 2012. The course will cover analysis topics including sequences, series, limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, and topology. It will meet 3 times a week for lectures and use Mattuck's Introduction to Analysis textbook. Students will be graded based on problem sets, two hour-long exams, and a final exam, each counting for about 1/3 of the final grade. The course website provides additional resources and the syllabus outlines the planned weekly topics, though later topics may change depending on student needs and interests.
