Description
Providing fully-worked-out solutions to mathematical exercises and exploring natural extensions of ideas, this companion volume offers insights into writing mathematical proofs.
The text follows the main book's chapter topics in the same order, with theorem and exercise numbers referring to the corresponding statements in the main text. This allows readers to see how to approach a mathematical investigation and push ideas further to prove more.
