Abstract
We shall find it convenient to use logical symbols such as ∀, ∃, ∍, ⇒ and ⇔. These are listed below with their meanings. A brief summary of set algebra, functions, elementary real analysis, matrices and determinants, which will be used throughout this book, is included in this chapter. Our purpose is descriptive and no attempt has been made to give proofs of the results stated. The reader is expected to be familiar with the material.
