Hey mathematicians,

I've heard Principles of Mathematical Analysis referred to as "Baby Rudin."
What is Regular Rudin? Real and Complex Analysis or the Functional Analysis
book?

Thanks

As I've heard it used, it would mean Real and Complex Analysis, set as
a first year graduate text for real analysis (despite the name).

Agreed. That was certainly the usage at Madison in the
early 70s.
