Features: Discrete mathematics differs from calculus in that it focuses on discrete objects and serves as a foundational course in mathematics for computer science and other engineering disciplines. This textbook covers main topics such as mathematical logic, set theory, number functions and recursive relations, graph theory, algebraic systems, and Boolean algebra. The textbook emphasizes systematic and accurate theoretical presentation, accompanied by numerous examples and exercises. It pays special attention to explaining theoretical difficulties, with clear and easy-to-understand descriptions. This book is not only suitable for students of computer science or other engineering majors in vocational and technical colleges but can also be used as a self-study resource for readers interested in discrete mathematics.
