of Absolute and Conditional Convergence
- The Ratio and Root Tests

the sum of the alternating harmonic
series [*
Proofs are non-examinable]

Homework
7 (Due Friday
the 12th of October)
Homework 7 with
Solutions

- Continuity and the Intermediate and
Extreme Value Theorems
- Functional Limits (including the
Sequential Characterization)
- Differentiation
- Interior Extrema Theorem

the 2nd of November)
Homework
8 with Solutions

integrated) term-by-term inside their radius
of convergence
[* Only the proof that the original and
differentiated series have the same radius
of convergence is examinable]
- Lagrangian Remainder Estimate for
Maclaurin Series and Applications
- Alternating Series Remainder Estimate
