The Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem; Cauchy sequences; Cauchy completeness of the real numbers. 2. Real-valued functions on an interval: limits and continuity. 3. Intermediate Value Theorem; Max-Min Theorem. 4. Uniform continuity; continuous functions on a closed and bounded interval are uniformly continuous. 5. Differentiable functions. 6. Interior Extremum Theorem, Rolle's Theorem, Mean Value Theorem. 7. Taylor's Theorem and Taylor Series. 8. The Riemann Integral on a closed and bounded interval.
