Epp FIFTH EDITION, METRIC EDITION Boston, MA : Cengage Learning, [2020] xxii, 871 pages, [A-141] : illustrations (some color) ; 27 cm text txt rdacontent unmediated n rdamedia volume nc rdacarrier Includes index. This book contains topics on: Speaking Mathematically, The Logic of Compound Statements, The Logic of Quantified Statements, Elementary Number Theory and Methods of Proof, Sequences, Mathematical Induction, and Recursion, Set Theory, Properties of Functions, Properties of Relations, Counting and Probability, Theory of Graphs and Trees, Analysis of Algorithm Efficiency, Regular Expressions and Finite-State Automata, Appendix A: Properties of the Real Numbers, and Appendix B: Solutions and Hints to Selected Exercises. "This book explains complex, abstract concepts with clarity and precision and provides a strong foundation for computer science and upper-level mathematics courses of the computer age. Author Susanna Epp presents not only the major themes of discrete mathematics, but also the reasoning that underlies mathematical thought. Students develop the ability to think abstractly as they study the ideas of logic and proof. While learning about such concepts as logic circuits and computer addition, algorithm analysis, recursive thinking, computability, automata, cryptography and combinatorics, students discover that the ideas of discrete mathematics underlie and are essential to today's science and technology." --Publisher Mathematics. 7 cbc orignew 2 epcn 20 y-gencatlg ddc BK 0 3087 3087 0 0 ddc 0 0 FOUNDATION FOUNDATION CIRC 2023-03-09 0 Circ 510 Ep71 2021 62767 2023-03-09 00:00:00 2023-03-09 BK
