Here is a link to a pdf file of P. Halmos' article "How to write mathematics".  It is both useful and humorous.

Here is a link to a pdf file of my MATH 3100 notes from last semester. The first chapter contains further discussion of the axioms of R, while the last chapter outlines several alternate methods of constructing R from Q.  Chapters 2 and 3 cover sequences and series.

    A.  Let F be an ordered field and suppose a,b in F+.  Prove the following.
            (i)  inf F+ = 0.     
            (ii)  If  a< b, then an<bn for each positive integer n.
           (iii)   If an<bn for some positive integer n, then a<b.

    B.  Suppose F is an ordered field, while n is a positive integer.  Prove the following.
           (i)  If 0<x<1, then  (1+x)n-1≤nx(1+x)n-1≤n2nx.
           (ii)  inf {bn | b in F, b>1} =1
           (iii)  sup {bn | b in F, 0<b<1} =1

    C.  Redo Problems 3 and 4b on the first hour test by first showing that the function f mapping X to the R by f(x):=d(x,b) is continuous and then using results from Chapter 4.
