Overview
This text book is designed for an undergraduate course on mathematics. It covers the basic material that every graduate student should know in the classical theory of functions of real variables, measures, limits and continuity. This text book offers readability, practicality and flexibility. It presents fundamental theorems and ideas from a practical viewpoint, showing students the motivation behind mathematics and enabling them to construct their own proofs.
