A mathematical proof is a sequence of statements that follow on logically from each other that shows that something is always true. Using letters to stand for numbers means that we can make ...
Students should have taken, or be taking concurrently, the course Mathematical Methods (MA100), or the course Quantitative Methods (Mathematics) (MA107). The course is an introduction to the use of ...
