# Preface {-}

`r text_top_count`

This is a work-in-progress [course website](https://fanwangecon.github.io/Math4Econ/) for Mathematics for Economists. Course covers a limited subset of topics from [Mathematics for Economists](Mathematics for Economists) [@simonblume1994], and uses various definitions from the book. Applications focus on two period borrowing and savings problems. Matlab's symbolic toolbox is used throughout.

Materials are written in [matlab](https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab.html) [@matlab] livescript files and shown as HTML files. To obtain matlab codes, see [here](docs/gitsetup.md) and [here](docs/gitsetupown.md) for github set up. For HTML files, click on the links below.

From other repositories: For dynamic borrowing and savings problems, see [Dynamic Asset Repository](https://fanwangecon.github.io/CodeDynaAsset/); For code examples, see also [R Example Code](https://fanwangecon.github.io/R4Econ/), [Matlab Example Code](https://fanwangecon.github.io/M4Econ/), and [Stata Example Code](https://fanwangecon.github.io/Stata4Econ/); For intro stat with R, see [Intro Statistics for Undergraduates](https://fanwangecon.github.io/Stat4Econ/). See [here](https://github.com/FanWangEcon) for all of [Fan](https://fanwangecon.github.io/)'s public repositories.

The site is built using [Bookdown](https://bookdown.org/) [@R-bookdown].
