    Wow, switching from an environmental science bachelors to a math master degree is impressive!

      I had started as a math major and made it through calculus 3. After that, we started proof based math which is when I switched to EES.

    Thank you all for expressing interest in my book! It has been a work in progress ever since I entered the masters program about 5 years ago. It is a long term goal, and I do not know when I will try to publish it. According to my ten goals, it should be published before 2030 but hopefully before then.

    Since you are writing a Real Analysis textbook, here are some of the things I want to see in a new one,
    1) All the proofs should be accompanied with extensive commentaries so the student can understand the whys and hows.
    2) Most books give a lot of exercises at the end of the chapter but there is usually no solution or hint.
    I would like the book to include hints(The hints should be meaningful and clear) and there should be a seperate solution manual.
    3) Texts like Bartle & Sherbert are excellent material but they aren't the most beginner friendly (Better than Rudin though).
    There is a book called "A Basic course in real analysis" by S Kumaresan and A Kumar. Which is one of the best Pedagogically but it has a lot of errata and it's hints are horrendous.
    I hope you will write a book with the pedagogy of "A basic course in Real Analysis", rigour of Rudin and as concise as Bartle Sherbert. I know these are big demands but If you can do it it will be a great book.

    You are one of the few people I've met who switched from a non-math bachelor to a math bachelor. I also switched from Electronics Engineering in my bachelor's to a master's in math. Now that I am in my last semester, I recall how hard it was to study real analysis. I chose Baby Rudin before starting my master's program and it took around a year to go through the first 7 chapters and a lot of tears. There is definitely a big need for this kind of study guide. good luck :)

    I'm currently an applied science student but looking to take up paleontology as my actual degree, my library has some analysis books but they're all for those already with a lot of knowledge in analysis. Hopefully when your book finishes I'll be able to get it and could finally learn analysis.

    • @BboyKeny
      @BboyKeny ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I'm reading "How to think about real analysis" and "Book of proofs" as prep for self-studying real analysis. Also I'm watching Brightside of Math and some other channels.
      The actual textbooks are still a bit out of reach in terms of writing proof, but I'm starting to be able to read them. My current understanding is that its about axioms and definitions which you combine and play around with to find theorems. Then you play around with the proven theorems to find new theorems. It starts with axioms and definitions for the Real numbers and eventually builds up to calculus and beyond.
      In the end you will end up with the ability to fairly quickly see what possibilities you have to tackle calculus problems. Because you know exactly when and how calculus tricks work, like the chain rule or the power rule. Also at that point all the other higher mathematics open up to you since you're used to proof reading and writing and many concepts repeat across different contexts.

    Every day, when I wake up, I often come across explanations in certain analysis textbooks that I find to be poorly articulated. And when I do manage to find a better explanation, I have the desire to compile my own analysis book with the best possible explanations. However, it's important to recognize that what works well for me might not necessarily work for the reader.

  • @jedediahjehoshaphat
    @jedediahjehoshaphat ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Great to know that you're not formally from a math background; i can relate to that, i too was a Physics student in my Bachelor's, had a rough transition to Mathematics especially since the University i got admitted to was a Pure Math Department essentially, none of the math i had cultivated previously was adequate to face the proof-based course and you correctly put it was more " philosophical" than science 😂😂😂 great memories

  • @mastershooter64
    @mastershooter64 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I hope your book emphasizes intuition more than anything. Like of course rigor is very important but just because a proof is short and elegant doesn't necessarily mean it's illuminating :) and of course I would hope your book also has some computational problems because math majors go too often without seeing the computational side

    Here in Germany, I'm currently in my 2nd semester of my Bachelor's degree. It's advised to take Analysis I - III in the first 3 semesters and these are extremely proof-heavy classes. There isn't anything like Calculus here. I think all of the German classes are more proof-based and personally I really like it that way. One of our instructors recently said "Here in Germany, we do Analysis, we're not in America where they do Calculus" and this has become somewhat of a joke among us students.

    if you're doing a study guide for introductory real analysis you have to provide some text explanation and graphically show why these proofs are true
    with actual integers and spaces. Otherwise it's just what you would get from a $200 text book.
