Prerequisites
This course assumes that the students already masters the skills in analysis (functions, derivatives and integrals) as expected at the end of secundary school.
Main themes
The course focuses on
- understanding of mathematical tools and techniques based on a rigorous learning of concepts favored by highlighting their practical application,
- careful handling of these tools and techniques in the framework of applications.
For most concepts, applications are selected from the other courses of the computer science program (eg economy).
Ìý
Sets and Numbers
- sets (intersection, union, difference)
- Order and equivalence,
- Interval, upper bounds, lower bounds, extremes,
- absolute value, powers and roots
Real functions of one variable
- injective, surjective, bijective functions,
- algebraic operations on functions (including graphic interpretation)
- first order functions,
- exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions
- Composition of functions and inverse functions
Limits
- conditions to ensure that a limit exists,
- limits to infinity
- fundamental theorems of continuous functions,
Differentiable functions
Ìý
- derivative at a point (including graphical interpretation)
- The Hospital's theorem,
- linear approximation of a function,
- maximum and minimum,
- encreasing of decreasing function (sign study)
- concavity and convexity,
- Taylor's development
Integrals
- primitive,
- definite integrals (including graphic interpretation)
- undefinite integrals
Functions of two variables
- notion and calculation of partial derivative
- graphical interpretation of the gradient
- interpretation and calculation of the HessianÌýmatrixÌý
- Intuitive introduction to the use of the Hessian matrixÌýand gradient for a 2-variable function to determine critical points and their nature
- concept and calculation of double integrals

Teaching methods
Lectures in a large auditorium, supervised exercise (APE) and problem (APP) sessions in small groups, possibly supplemented with writing assignments and online exercises.
Evaluation methods
Assessments are carried out individually in writing, based on the learning outcomes listed above. A test is organized during the first term, shorter tests are organized during some exercise sessions, and a written exam is organized during each session.
For the January session, the final grade is awarded on the basis of the tests (5 points out of 20) and the exam (15 points out of 20). For the other two sessions, the grade is based on the exam only.
