課程簡述 There are tremendous online and offline computational resources now a day. Although their results may sometimes be correct as we expected, these results are wrong other times; in the other situation, they are not what we expected but still are some of other correct answers. No matter in which situation, we need to have some knowledge to understand how to justify the answer we get, and modify these answers into the form we want. To have this ability, we will introduce the meaning of each symbol in Calculus and their complex relationship and interactions, so that students will not be afraid of these symbols and could trace and fix Calculus computations.

學習評量方式
The overall grades will be the highest grade among the follow three grades:
● 5% Attendance + 25% Assignments + 25% Preliminary Exam + 25% Midterm Exam + 20% Final Exam ,
● 5% Attendance + 25% Assignments + 35% Preliminary Exam + 35% Final Exam , and
● 5% Attendance + 25% Assignments + 35% Midterm Exam + 35% Final Exam .
For those who attends every class and whose highest grade among the previous three grades is still < 60 , your overall grade might be adjusted to pass this course.
教科書&參考書目(書名、作者、書局、代理商、說明)
To fully explain the definition of limit, we will cover necessary idea in Chapter 1 The Foundations: Logic and Proofs in Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications [1] before diving into our main textbook Calculus [5]. If the proof of a theorem is not covered in Calculus [5], we might refer An Introduction to Analysis [6] , but these materials will not be in exams. The others are the general reference.
