The latter half of the book covers counting techniques, permutations, and combinations. The graph theory section covers essential definitions, paths, circuits, and trees. While not as exhaustive as specialized graph theory texts, it provides sufficient depth for computer science applications, such as network modeling and sorting algorithms.
In a world of noise, this book is a signal. In a world of continuous distraction, it offers discrete, crystalline truths. Discrete Mathematics by Olympia Nicodemi
For the computer scientist, this is where the book shines. The transition from relations to graph theory is handled smoothly, providing the necessary vocabulary to discuss networks, paths, The latter half of the book covers counting
The first few chapters spend considerable time on logic and set theory basics. Students with prior exposure may find the early sections overly detailed. Conversely, later chapters on graphs and trees feel somewhat compressed. In a world of noise, this book is a signal
