Thoroughly updated, the new Third Edition of Discrete Structures, Logic, and Computability introduces beginning computer science and computer engineering students to the fundamental techniques and ideas used by computer scientists today, focusing on topics from the fields of mathematics, logic, and computer science itself. Dr. Hein provides elementary introductions to those ideas and techniques that are necessary to understand and practice the art and science of computing. The text contains all the topics for discrete structures in the reports of the IEEE/ACM Joint Task Force on Computing Curricula for computer science programs and for computer engineering programs.
Why is it that when I actually have to read a book to learn something from it, I seem to forget everything the second I finish it? I'm all out of explanations for that phenomena so I will let you think about it for a while. The book is tedious, but has some useful information, hence the three star rating. Also, I think it's time for me to stop writing reviews, this is going to be the last one. It's not like anybody is reading them anyway, but just in case someone is - thank you. If you want me to keep writing just let me know and I might be persuaded to write some more in the future.
