As the title of the present document, problemtext in advanced calculus, is intended to suggest, it is as much an extended problem set as a textbook. This part focuses on the axiomatic properties what we have defined to be true for the sake of analysis of not just the numbers themselves but the arithmetic operations and the inequality comparators as well.

A first course in complex analysis was written for a onesemester undergraduate course developed at binghamton university suny and san francisco state university, and has been adopted at several other institutions. We then discuss the real numbers from both the axiomatic. For an interval contained in the real line or a nice region in the plane, the length of the interval or the area of the region give an idea of the size.
