3 votes 3 votes Hi. I am new to Gate preparation. It would be very helpful if someone could clarify: Are Section 1.6 and 1.7 (Introduction to Proofs and Proof Methods and Strategy) from Kenneth Rosen (6th Edition) part of the Gate Syllabus? I didn't see them mentioned in the syllabus, hence asking. Thanks.

May be you give some reading from Fermat's little theorem or Godel's incompleteness in last part of this subtopic to just have an idea about it . 1 votes 1 votes meghashyamc commented Jul 12, 2017 reply Follow Share Thanks! 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.

Also, will help in GATE interviews. vaibhav101 answered Jul 12, 2017 vaibhav101 comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
