Discrete Mathematics (Classic Version) / Edition 5

by John Dossey, Albert Otto, Lawrence Spence, Charles Vanden Eynden

Overview

An ever-increasing percentage of mathematic applications involve discrete rather than continuous models. Driving this trend is the integration of the computer into virtually every aspect of modern society. Intended for a one-semester introductory course, the strong algorithmic emphasis of Discrete Mathematics, 5th Edition is independent of a specific programming language, allowing students to concentrate on foundational problem-solving and analytical skills. Instructors get the topical breadth and organizational flexibility to tailor the course to the level and interests of their students.

This title is part of the Pearson Modern Classics series. Pearson Modern Classics are acclaimed titles at a value price.
