real analysis is abstract hell any theorem that lets you state things that are obvious becomes your friend

I swear it’s a thing that I specifically started doing as a mangling of some post but I could be wrong

ap calc makes you hate the IVT and EVT and MVT and all of its relatives because why should you have to use this theorem for something so obvious, but a few weeks of real analysis makes them your best friends

because it takes until day 2 of class to prove that 1 is greater than 0

“for any real number c there is a natural number n such that n > c” is one of the most useful principles in the class and it had to be proven

How do you prove that though?

Like it’s true but what’s the proof?

cause they said so duh

well you see. you have to use the fact that for any real number c the interval [c, c + 1) contains exactly one integer. and the completeness axiom.

tell me more

this is literally every real analysis problem. you can see it’s true because you’ve done math for the last 15+ years of your life but you have to articulate why it’s true
