Elementary Algebra (7.5 ECTS credits)
The aim of the course is that the student should acquire basic skills in algebra, with focus on the logic structure of mathematics, proofs and how mathematical theory is constructed.
Algebraic expressions and inequalities, basic logic and set theory, relations and functions, proofs by induction, elementary number theory, complex numbers, polynomials and equations, linear systems of equations and matrices, geometrical vectors in plane and space, and determinants, are subjects dealed with in the course.
