    Proofs
In summary, the speaker is looking for textbooks or websites to help with proofs problems. They mention not needing help with answers, but rather with understanding the materials. They recommend the topology book by Munkres, specifically the first chapter, as a helpful resource for set theory. They also ask for any other resources that may be useful.

Hi everyone, please check the attachments for the problems. What i am looking for is not the help to answers. I've been desperately looking for relevant textbooks online that can help me out with proofs problems like that of the attachments. My professor does not provide a textbook, and his lectures does not really help with doing the problems.

If anyone knows any TEXTBOOKS and/or WEBSITES that can help me out with the materials in the attachments, please list them here. Thank you very much.

If i post this on the wrong section, please let me know where to post it as well. Thank you so much.

Try topology of Munkres. You'll only need the first chapter. I think it contains most of the things you want...

I'm going through that book now, and I can definitely give it a recommendation and agree the first chapter will cover most of the set theory you need for those.
