What were the 1-4 math classes? I also did Math+CS but haven't seen the upper level classes so named.

for the algebra classes: there are complete course notes for all of them at http://www.math.mcgill.ca/goren/courses.html. I took 3 algebra classes from him and it was great.

very roughly: 1. groups & rings, 2. linear algebra, 3. more groups & monoids & rings, 4. galois theory

for the analysis classes, very very roughly:

1. basics of analysis, the derivative, 2. the riemann integral, 3. metric spaces, 4. the lebesgue measure & integration

Cool! I really like the 1-2 algebra order. My school and everywhetr else I've seen did linear first which I found dubious.
