Discrete Mathematics: Theory and Applications (Revised Edition)

<內容簡介>

Discrete Mathematics: Theory and Applications（Revised Edition）offers a refreshing alternative for the undergraduate Discrete Mathematics course, In this revised text, Dr. Malik and Dr. Sen employ a classroom-tested, student-focused approach that is conducive to effective learning. Each chapter motivates students through the use of real-world, concrete examples. Ample exercise sets provide alternative practice, while programming exercises in each chapter allow opportunities for computer science application. This text is a true blend of theory and applications.
