Requirements: .PDF reader, 41.6 MB
Overview: Computer Science (CS) majors taking a non-programming-based course like discrete mathematics might ask ‘Why do I need to learn this?’ Written with these students in mind, this text introduces the mathematical foundations of Computer Science by providing a comprehensive treatment of standard technical topics while simultaneously illustrating some of the broad-ranging applications of that material throughout the field. Chapters on core topics from discrete structures – like logic, proofs, number theory, counting, probability, graphs – are augmented with around 60 ‘Computer Science connections’ pages introducing their applications: for example, game trees (logic), triangulation of scenes in computer graphics (induction), the Enigma machine (counting), algorithmic bias (relations), differential privacy (probability), and paired kidney transplants (graphs). Pedagogical features include ‘Why You Might Care’ sections, quick-reference chapter guides and key terms and results summaries, problem-solving and writing tips, ‘Taking it Further’ asides with more technical details, and around 1700 exercises, 435 worked examples, and 480 figures. This book is designed for an undergraduate student who has taken a Computer Science class or three. Most likely, you are a sophomore or junior prospective or current computer science major taking your first non-programming-based CS class. If you are a student in this position, you may be wondering why you’re taking this class (or why you have to take this class!). Computer Science students taking a class like this one sometimes don’t see why this material has anything to do with computer science—particularly if you enjoy CS because you enjoy programming.
