Discrete Mathematical Structures (5th Edition)

Description: About this productProduct InformationFor one- or two-term freshman/sophomore-level courses in Discrete Mathematics. Combining a careful selection of topics with previews of their genuine applications in computer science, this text, more than any other book in its field, is written at an elementary level with a strong pedagogical focus. It limits its area and coverage of topics to those that students will actually utilize, and emphasizes both basic theory and applications, giving a firm foundation for more advanced courses, as well as providing an excellent reference work for those courses.Product IdentifiersPublisherPrentice Hall PTRISBN-100130457973ISBN-139780130457974eBay Product ID (ePID)4418744Product Key FeaturesAuthorSharon Cutler Ross, Bernard Kolman, Robert C.
