Discrete and Combinatorial Mathematics

I liked the way,the writer has approached the readers. It is nice.

This is one of the best books on the subject, explanations are very clear and a huge number of examples are provided. This book can be very useful as a reference and for developing a deep understanding of the subject. I bought a used copy which was in condition and only a couple of pages from the front were torn out, otherwise the condition was pretty good.

Today i got this book. Superb.

All Is Ok.....!!!

Nice one

Although this is not the original one, it is modified one with several topics removed and some added like Algebraic Structures. Compare the contents with the original and buy according to your requirements.

Vgood dense book

Good

Gives a good overview of abstract mathematics in a very well presented fashion. Gives an introduction and some practice applying first order logic, set theory, algebras, solutions to recurrence equations, and more. It really has nothing to do with computer science and makes no attempt to show anything about it, as any language is just a language.

Good conditions

Kitap cok iyi bir kitap. Palme kitabevi'de paketi ozenle hazirlamisti. Onlara da tesekkur ederim.

This is a very good book for beginners at discrete mathematics. Many first year courses in discrete math usually focus on two or three major topics: combinatorics and finite automata, recurrence and generating functions, and graph theory. The good thing about this book it that it covers all of it in good detail for a undergrad course. Therefore the professor has the option of picking the material he thinks will be interesting or maybe easier to understand for the students from a vast collection of topics (with many exercises). The exercises also include some which are related to programming/cs and so the book is also good for cs students. There's also a section at the end which includes modern discrete mathematics which is more or less a bit of abstract algebra(modular arithmetic,rings,fields) and groups with various applications to modern fields such as cryptography, networks, digital switches, and more "mathy" applications such as latin squares and finite fields. The cons of this book is that it's quite large and heavy(over 800 pages), and it is quite pricy, but it makes up for it by having a good structure exercises of various difficulties. (so it's not perfect but it's quite good, hence the 4 star rating) Overall this is a worthy purchase for a first year student who wants to find out what discrete math is, or a professor who wants a large book full of different topics which are not at a too high level while at the same time being challenging enough for a 1st or 2nd year course.

I would rent this book again if necessary. It will do wonders for people taking Discrete Structures -- the mathematics class.
