Discrete Mathematical Structures: Theory and Applications

by D.S. Malik, M.K. Sen, Jennifer Muroff (Editor)

Discrete Mathematical Structures teaches students the mathematical foundations of computer science, including logic, Boolean algebra, basic graph theory, finite state machines, grammars, and algorithms. Authors Malik and 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, and ample exercise sets provide additional practice. All chapters contain extensive Worked-Out Exercises designed to demonstrate problem-solving techniques.
