| discrete mathematical structures: Discrete Mathematical Structures for Computer Science Bernard Kolman, Robert C. Busby, 1987 This text has been designed as a complete introduction to discrete mathematics, primarily for computer science majors in either a one or two semester course. The topics addressed are of genuine use in computer science, and are presented in a logically coherent fashion. The material has been organized and interrelated to minimize the mass of definitions and the abstraction of some of the theory. For example, relations and directed graphs are treated as two aspects of the same mathematical idea. Whenever possible each new idea uses previously encountered material, and then developed in such a way that it simplifies the more complex ideas that follow. |

| discrete mathematical structures: Applied Discrete Structures Ken Levasseur, Al Doerr, 2012-02-25 ''In writing this book, care was taken to use language and examples that gradually wean students from a simpleminded mechanical approach and move them toward mathematical maturity. We also recognize that many students who hesitate to ask for help from an instructor need a readable text, and we have tried to anticipate the questions that go unasked. The wide range of examples in the text are meant to augment the favorite examples that most instructors have for teaching the topcs in discrete mathematics. To provide diagnostic help and encouragement, we have included solutions and/or hints to the odd-numbered exercises. These solutions include detailed answers whenever warranted and complete proofs, not just terse outlines of proofs. Our use of standard terminology and notation makes Applied Discrete Structures a valuable reference book for future courses. Although many advanced books have a short review of elementary topics, they cannot be complete. The text is divided into lecture-length sections, facilitating the organization of an instructor's presentation.Topics are presented in such a way that students' understanding can be monitored through thought-provoking exercises. The exercises require an understanding of the topics and how they are interrelated, not just a familiarity with the key words. An Instructor's Guide is available to any instructor who uses the text. It includes: Chapter-by-chapter comments on subtopics that emphasize the pitfalls to avoid; Suggested coverage times; Detailed solutions to most even-numbered exercises; Sample quizzes, exams, and final exams. This textbook has been used in classes at Casper College (WY), Grinnell College (IA), Luzurne Community College (PA), University of the Puget Sound (WA).''-- |

| discrete mathematical structures: Discrete Mathematics for Computer Science John Schlipf, Sue Whitesides, Gary Haggard, 2020-09-22 Discrete Mathematics for Computer Science by Gary Haggard , John Schlipf , Sue Whitesides A major aim of this book is to help you develop mathematical maturity-elusive as thisobjective may be. We interpret this as preparing you to understand how to do proofs ofresults about discrete structures that represent concepts you deal with in computer science.A correct proof can be viewed as a set of reasoned steps that persuade another student,the course grader, or the instructor about the truth of the assertion. Writing proofs is hardwork even for the most experienced person, but it is a skill that needs to be developedthrough practice. We can only encourage you to be patient with the process. Keep tryingout your proofs on other students, graders, and instructors to gain the confidence that willhelp you in using proofs as a natural part of your ability to solve problems and understandnew material. The six chapters referred to contain the fundamental topics. Thesechapters are used to guide students in learning how to express mathematically precise ideasin the language of mathematics.The two chapters dealing with graph theory and combinatorics are also core materialfor a discrete structures course, but this material always seems more intuitive to studentsthan the formalism of the first four chapters. Topics from the first four chapters are freelyused in these later chapters. The chapter on discrete probability builds on the chapter oncombinatorics. The chapter on the analysis of algorithms uses notions from the core chap-ters but can be presented at an informal level to motivate the topic without spending a lot oftime with the details of the chapter. Finally, the chapter on recurrence relations primarilyuses the early material on induction and an intuitive understanding of the chapter on theanalysis of algorithms. The material in Chapters 1 through 4 deals with sets, logic, relations, and functions.This material should be mastered by all students. A course can cover this material at differ-ent levels and paces depending on the program and the background of the students whenthey take the course. Chapter 6 introduces graph theory, with an emphasis on examplesthat are encountered in computer science. Undirected graphs, trees, and directed graphsare studied. Chapter 7 deals with counting and combinatorics, with topics ranging from theaddition and multiplication principles to permutations and combinations of distinguishableor indistinguishable sets of elements to combinatorial identities.Enrichment topics such as relational databases, languages and regular sets, uncom-putability, finite probability, and recurrence relations all provide insights regarding howdiscrete structures describe the important notions studied and used in computer science.Obviously, these additional topics cannot be dealt with along with the all the core materialin a one-semester course, but the topics provide attractive alternatives for a variety of pro-grams. This text can also be used as a reference in courses. The many problems provideample opportunity for students to deal with the material presented. |

| discrete mathematical structures: Mathematics of Discrete Structures for Computer Science Gordon J. Pace, 2012-07-09 Mathematics plays a key role in computer science, some researchers would consider computers as nothing but the physical embodiment of mathematical systems. And whether you are designing a digital circuit, a computer program or a new programming language, you need mathematics to be able to reason about the design -- its correctness, robustness and dependability. This book covers the foundational mathematics necessary for courses in computer science. The common approach to presenting mathematical concepts and operators is to define them in terms of properties they satisfy, and then based on these definitions develop ways of computing the result of applying the operators and prove them correct. This book is mainly written for computer science students, so here the author takes a different approach: he starts by defining ways of calculating the results of applying the operators and then proves that they satisfy various properties. After justifying his underlying approach the author offers detailed chapters covering propositional logic, predicate calculus, sets, relations, discrete structures, structured types, numbers, and reasoning about programs. The book contains chapter and section summaries, detailed proofs and many end-of-section exercises -- key to the learning process. The book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, and although the treatment focuses on areas with frequent applications in computer science, the book is also suitable for students of mathematics and engineering. |

This book combines two major components of Mathematics and Computer Science under one roof. Without the core conceptions and tools derived from discrete mathematics, one cannot understand the abstract or the general idea involving algorithm and data structures in Computer Science. The objects of data structures are basically objects of discrete mathematics. This book tries to bridge the gap between two major components of Mathematics and Computer Science.In any computer science course, studying discrete mathematics is essential, although they are taught separately, except in a few cases. Yet, a comprehensive book, combining these two major components, is hard to find out; not only that, it is almost impossible to understand one without the help of other.Hope, this book will fill the gap. Readers will learn discrete mathematical abstracts as well as its implementation in algorithm and data structures shown in various programming language, such as C++, Java, C#, Python and Dart.1.
