This is a description of what was done in each class; there is a separate listing of the homework that was assigned.
Come to class ready to discuss any examples or problems that you were not sure of.Except as noted, all references are to the textbook for this class, Introduction to Analysis, by M. Rosenlicht.
Classes are described in reverse time order.

Class 30 (M 11/2): start DW pages 341-344; properties of the

(on properties of the integral) for the order in which we will discuss
these things and a couple of proofs that are not given in the DW text.
Class 29 (F 10/30): cover DW page 345 (proof that continuous
functions are
integrable) and problem 17.14 (monotone, bounded functions are

Class 27 (M 10/26): cover much of pages 339-340 in DW.
Reference for the next 6 classes is chapter 17 of Fundamental Mathematics by D'Angelo
and West; this covers the Riemann-Darboux approach to defining an
integral for bounded real-valued functions on a closed bounded
interval. Material from this chapter will be referred to as "DW".
