Course Objective

The aim of this course is to introduce the notion of time scale, which builds a connection between the continuous and the discrete mathematics.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Understanding the mathematical analysis on more general sets than reals such as the set of integers and the quantum set.
2   Unifying the usual and the discrete calculus.
3   Extending mathematical results to more general sets.
4   Understanding the effect of varying step-size in mathematical analysis proccess.
5   Defining and examining the classical special functions on general sets.
