Overview
In this course we will begin a study of real analysis, including basic properties if the real numbers, sequences and series, various notions of convergence, differentiation and integration.Instructors

Tutors and Graders
Emily Fischer, Alexander Gruver and Ben Lowenstein are tutoring and grading for this course. You should talk to them frequently and take advantage of their expertise! Tutoring hours are:Tuesday: 7-9 pm
Textbook
The official text for this course is Principles of Mathematical Analysis, by Walter Rudin.Grades
There will be two midterms, one final exam and weekly homework. Each will count one fifth of your grade. The remaining fifth is the maximum of these four items.Homework
Written homework will be due in class each Wednesday, and is posted below. Late homework may not be accepted. Each student's lowest homework score will be dropped. Please consult the HMC mathematics homework format guidelines for helpful tips on homework submission and formatting.Rewrites
Students have the opportunity to turn in a rewritten copy of the first four homeworks for a revised grade. Details can be found on the Math 131 Rewrite Policy.Exams
There will be three exams. The first exam will be in-class on Monday, February 24. The second exam will be take-home, out Wed March 26 and due Mon March 31. The third exam will be either take-home or in-class, but will be due at 2pm on Wednesday, May 14.LaTeX
Students should feel free to use LaTeX for homework, but this isn't required.Disabilities
Students who need disability-related accommodations are encouraged to discuss this with the instructor as soon as possible.Honor Code
Though cooperation on homework assignments is encouraged, students are expected to write up their own solutions individually. That is, no copying. Comprehension is the goal, so even with cooperation, you should understand solutions well enough to write them up yourself. It is appropriate to acknowledge the assistance of others; if you work with others on a homework question, please write their names in the margin. Tests are to be done individually. You are encouraged to discuss your paper with other students. The HMC Honor Code applies in all matters of conduct concerning this course.LaTeX Lecture Notes

yet, watch them before the class lecture, and then during class you
can ask questions!
