Course info
The course is designed for first Semester students of BSc Honours in Mathematics.
This course provides a solid foundation in both mathematical logic and
the principles of calculus. Beginning with "Basic Logic", students explore
propositional logic, propositional equivalence, predicates, and
quantifiers. The course then transitions to "Functions", covering the
basics of functions and their graphs, combining functions through
shifting and scaling, and introducing inverse functions.
The core of the course is dedicated to "Derivatives", where students
are introduced to techniques of differentiation without formal proof,
higher derivatives, product and quotient rules, derivatives of trigonometric
functions using formulas, the chain rule, and implicit differentiation.
The focus is on practical applications, preparing students for
real-world problem-solving.
