Lecture 10: The Completeness of the Real Numbers and Basic Properties of Infinite Series

Description: We introduce Cauchy sequences and prove the completeness of the real numbers: i.e. every Cauchy sequence is convergent. We also begin studying infinite series, which we will focus on for the next few lectures, starting with geometric series.

Speaker: Casey Rodriguez
