I am studying Apostol's book of Mathematical Analysis, and I am looking for problems. I have solved most of the problems in Apostol and most in Rudin, also from Folland. Can someone plese recommend any other book with decent problems? I know this question has been asked before. I need mostly proof problems. Any help or reference would be appreciated.

Thank in advance!

E. Stein and R. Shakarchi's Princeton Lectures in Analysis have good selections of problems. Or rather, a good selection of what they call "Exercises," which are comparable to what you might find in other textbooks, and then a few of what they call "Problems," which are more involved than the standard sort of "Exercise."

Also, specifically for real analysis R. Wheeden and Antoni Zygmund's Measure and Integral has a large selection of exercises as well.

Edit: An important remark! Professor Wheeden is updating his book to a second edition. (Source: I'm a student at his institution.)

I like Richard Bass's Real Analysis for Graduate Students. Carother's book Real Analysis is pretty good too. They're both pretty advanced, but if you're already gone through Apostol, Rudin and Folland, I think you'll be able to handle them.

There are several wonderful FREE online problem courses in various areas of mathematics by John Erdman of Portland State University available at his website here. 1

There are 5 courses in analysis written by Erdman at the site for his students-one on basic calculus, one at the advanced calculus level, one at the graduate analysis level,one on functional analysis and lastly,one on operator theory, the last 2 for advanced graduate students. These are extremely well written and comprehensive sources you will find a ton of great exercises in and that every student of mathematics should become familiar with.

And best of all,they're free! I think you'll find them very helpful.
