In mathematics, constructive analysis is mathematical analysis done according to some principles of constructive mathematics.

Description

Constructive analysis contrasts with classical analysis, which (in this context) simply means analysis done according to the (ordinary) principles of classical mathematics.

Generally speaking, constructive analysis can reproduce theorems of classical analysis, but only in application to separable spaces.

Also, some theorems may need to be approached by approximations.

Furthermore, many classical theorems can be stated in ways that are logically equivalent according to classical logic, but not all of these forms will be valid in constructive analysis, which uses intuitionistic logic.
