let Explanation: 11 down vote accepted Let: This is usually used in a definition, when no earlier context is given. For example, "let xx be a real number", "let nn be an integer". We would then continue with the proof, and use this definition for whatever we had in mind. This is used in practically every mathematical proof. Assume: This is used in a statement that elaborates on a previous context. For example, we might say "let xx be an real number.... Assume that xx is positive" or "let nn be an integer... assume that nn is even." https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/483544/difference-i...
