Features: This book selects four core chapters from discrete mathematics that are fundamental and widely applied across various fields: mathematical logic, set theory, algebraic systems, and graph theory. It covers twelve chapters, including propositional logic, predicate logic, sets, relations, mappings, algebraic structures, group theory, several special algebraic systems, basic concepts of graphs, Eulerian graphs and Hamiltonian graphs, trees and forests, and planar graphs. Each chapter is accompanied by a sufficient number of exercises, and answers or hints to the exercises are provided at the end of the book. Adhering to the principles of being concise, easy to learn, and practical, the book features appropriate selection of materials, a rigorous structure, detailed explanations, and clear language. It includes numerous examples to facilitate self-study, is versatile, and has strong adaptability and flexibility. This book can serve as a textbook for discrete mathematics courses in computer science programs at ordinary universities and colleges, as well as a teaching material for specialized courses or correspondence courses at various vocational colleges and technical schools.
