Introduction to Fundamental Math Proof Techniques

In this video, I discuss 4 fundamental proof techniques used in mathematical proofs. I also talk about mathematical statements, logical operators and quantifiers.
This is part 1 of a video series discussing proofs.

First semester in university was so hard because not knowing how proofs work, than I got used to it and despite same or heavier proofs in this semester I do better. Definitely a skill that should be taught in high school.

Really looking forward to this series. It's so important

Literally just started Intro to Abstract Math; what timing! Thanks for the upload!

Math 135 midterm review. You sir are an angle! You will be mentioned in my grad speech. Thank you very much for all the videos.

You sir, are a godsend, you have no clue how much I needed this

[domojim]

Heyyyy, I'm taking a mathematical proofs class this semester lol

[stev]

I'm very excited for this one. I really want to learn more about logic cause I'm trying to teach myself some more coding on my own, now that I'm done school. Logic comes up a ton.

Great video Patrick! When is the next part coming out? Thanks for all your hard work. Learning how to prove things is really fundamental. Could you discuss where to start in a general proof?

[fschutt]

The hardest thing I've found about mathematical papers is not to understand them, but to read the notation.

Thanks for this video.

Really useful video. i was always curious about how they came up with these techniques Thank you !

[matshepherd]

Nice man. I just started Foundations of Mathematics this semester. Thank you for all of your videos Patrick!

[curtpiazza]

WOW! I learned a lot in 14 min! 😊Thanx!

[frankorefice]

Wow, we literally just went over this today during Discrete Structures. Thanks for the vid, it cleared up a lot of things.

[davidk]

Finally somebody explained proof by induction

[cavellW]

i've been waiting for so many years

[Cowonahill_]

Yaaas, I'm in linear algebra RIGHT NOW THANK YOU.

[tangytoby]

SPOOKY im taking this class next semester it's almost like you read my mind

[shaunderoza]

For your next video can you let the Austin hypothesis be the statement that Austin is the best city in the world and prove this is unsolvable in ZFC?

[daleschraw]

I learned and used all of these by sophomore year of high school. This is nice but very low fundamentals on the scale. I have BA & Masters in mathematics.

[canadianiam]

dude thanks so much im taking introduction to proofs next semester!! more of these <3
