1. Course Description

This course deals with the additional topics of real analysis. It provides a
rigorous development of the techniques of analysis dealing with the topics
such as convergence of improper integrals, sequences and series of functions,
function of several variables, multiple integrals, metric spaces and
approximation methods of calculating roots of equations and definite integrals.
Besides these , this course also introduces metric space and numerical
methods which would be foundations for the study of higher mathematical
concepts .

2. General Objectives
