Selective Topics in Finite Mathematics
Overview
Description
This course introduces the fundamental and unifying concepts of discrete mathematics. Topics covered divide into three categories: (1) fundamental concepts of mathematics: definitions, proofs, sets, functions, elementary number theory; (2) discrete structures: graphs, counting; (3) discrete probability theory. The underlying goal is to teach students about careful mathematics: precisely stating assertions about well-defined mathematical objects and verifying those assertions using mathematically sound proofs. This course may not be used within the Mathematics major.
