Review:
- the course text, by Rudin
- review Calc texts by Spivak / Apostall (clarification on specific topics would be helpful)
- review Analysis books by Spivak / Apostall (clarification on specific topics would be helpful)
- review series & sequences
- review delta epsilon proofs
- practice proof writing (recommendations on a text with basic proof writing problems and, more importantly, lots of detailed solutions would be appreciated.)
Thank you in advance for you help.
