Discrete Mathematics with Coding by Hugo D. Junghenn
Requirements: .PDF reader, 8.2 MB
Overview: This book, for a first undergraduate course in Discrete Mathematics, systematically exploits the relationship between discrete mathematics and computer programming. Unlike most discrete mathematics texts focusing on one of the other, the book explores the rich and important connection between these two disciplines and shows how each discipline reinforces and enhances the other.
The mathematics in the book is self-contained, requiring only a good background in precalculus and some mathematical maturity. New mathematical topics are introduced as needed.
The coding language used is VBA Excel. The language is easy to learn, has intuitive commands, and the reader can develop interesting programs from the outset. Additionally, the spreadsheet platform in Excel makes for convenient and transparent data input and output and provides a powerful venue for complex data manipulation. Manipulating data is greatly simplified using spreadsheet features and visualizing the data can make programming and debugging easier.
The VBA language is seamlessly integrated into the spreadsheet environment with no other resources required. Furthermore, as some of the modules in the book show, intricate patterns, graphs, and animation in the form of moving cells is possible.
