IN particular, the theory of mathematical induction is presented to highlight all the key ideas needed to make a sound and convincing argument and supported by novel exercises that allow a student to demonstrate understanding and gain proof writing maturity without resorting to the usual dry derivation of formulas requiring algebraic tricks ER -
