Mathematics

For one or two term undergraduate courses in Discrete Mathematics for students of Mathematics and Computer Science.

Adopting a user-friendly, conversational—and at times humorous—style, these authors make the principles and practices of discrete mathematics as stimulating as possible while presenting comprehensive, rigorous coverage. Examples and exercises integrated throughout each chapter serve to piqué student interest and bring clarity to even the most complex concepts. Above all, the book is designed to engage today's students in the interesting, applicable facets of modern mathematics.

• NEW - Chapter One is completely rewritten—Includes new sections on truth tables, the algebra of propositions and logical arguments.

  • Provides students with greater coverage of logic and truth tables at the beginning of the text. Ex.___

• NEW - Most algorithms have been rewritten.

  • Allows students to see algorithms in a less casual way so as to more closely resemble computer code. Ex.___

• NEW - Review exercises—Added to the end of every chapter.

  • Helps students to review and reinforce text concepts. Ex.___

• NEW - Emphasis on writing and critical thinking skills.

  • Allows students to strengthen their skills in these areas. Ex.___

• More than 200 worked examples and problems as well as over 2500 exercises are included.

  • Helps students to review and practice text concepts. Ex.___

• More than 800 problems have full solutions provided in the back of the book—Basically, this is a free students solutions manual folded in.

• More than 150 Pauses (short questions)—Inserted at strategic points. Full solutions to Pauses are included at the end of each section.

  • Serves to underscore key ideas. Ex.___

• Problem sets are carefully graded by level of difficulty.

  • Allows students to begin with truly elementary exercises and adjust to more difficult exercises. Ex.___

• Topics in discrete math are used as a vehicle for teaching proofs.

  Brief Description | Buy from myPearsonStore

  

  Far more “user friendly” than the vast majority of similar books, this text is truly written with the “beginning” reader in mind.  The pace is tight, the style is light, and the text emphasizes theorem proving throughout. The authors emphasize "Active Reading,” a skill vital to success in learning how to think mathematically (and write clean, error-free programs).
