Mathematical analysis is a branch of mathematics that studies continuous change using the principles of analysis.

Description

Mathematical analysis includes the theories of:

These theories are usually studied in the context of real and complex numbers and functions.

Analysis evolved from calculus, which involves the elementary concepts and techniques of analysis.

Analysis may be distinguished from geometry; however, it can be applied to any space of mathematical objects that has a definition of nearness (a topological space) or specific distances between objects (a metric space).
