Objectives of studying the discipline |
1) acquaintance of students starting their mathematical education with the language of higher mathematics, terminology and general mathematical constructs underlying various mathematical disciplines; 2) a presentation of the elements of mathematical logic and the basic methods used in the proofs of mathematical statements; 3) demonstration of the axiomatic method of constructing mathematical theories by the example of the axiomatics of natural numbers and Euclidean planimetry; 4) an exposition of the elements of combinatorics used in various disciplines, in particular, in the courses “Mathematical Analysis” and “Algebra and Number Theory” As a result of studying the discipline “Introduction to mathematics” the student must: be able to: – to use the basic objects of the theory of sets and mappings and their properties; – carry out rigorous proofs of mathematical statements using logical operations and laws; – solve the simplest combinatorial problems |
