After a Real Analysis book that has solutions (for self-study)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding suitable self-study mathematics texts that do not require frequent online clarifications. 'Understanding Analysis' by Stephen Abbott and 'Real Mathematical Analysis' by C.C. Pugh are highlighted as potential choices, although the lack of solutions manuals is a concern. For Linear Algebra, opinions on Hoffman's text vary, with some recommending it for beginners while others find it less accessible. The user has also purchased Shilov's Linear Algebra but finds it too terse. Kaczor & Nowak's "Problems in Analysis" series is mentioned as an interesting option, along with a free Erdman problem text and a recommended free Linear Algebra book that includes answers.

One that is suitable for self-study and doesn't require me to constantly ask the internet for clarifications.

'Understanding Analysis' by Stephen Abbott and 'Real Mathematical Analysis' by C.C. Pugh seem suitable but unfortunately I can't find a solutions manual

Thanks

EDIT:

Also I need a Linear Algebra text! Is Hoffman's Linear Algebra recommended as a first course in LA (self study also)? I've read the Amazon reviews and like most texts, some think it is, some don't. I bought Shilov's Linear Algebra (it's cheap) to see what LA is all about but it seems a bit terse for me.

For the following four books, has anyone used them in a course or for self study? Compiler Construction Principles and Practice 1st Edition by Kenneth C Louden Programming Languages Principles and Practices 3rd Edition by Kenneth C Louden, and Kenneth A Lambert Programming Languages 2nd Edition by Allen B Tucker, Robert E Noonan Concepts of Programming Languages 9th Edition by Robert W Sebesta If yes to either, can you share your opinions about your personal experience using them.

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
