The course further develops the student's competence in the field of the formulation and the solution of mathematical exercises, problems and problem situations. Attention is paid to independently solving various types of exercises, to choosing appropriate strategies, to taking advantage of knowledge from various mathematical disciplines, to using computers. Students will learn inductive procedures, induction, generalization and stating hypotheses, deduction and proofs, further parametrical exercises, discussion about the number of solutions.
