Tying together discrete mathematical topics with a theme, this text stresses both basic theory and applications, offering students a firm foundation for more advanced courses. It limits the mathematics required (no calculus), and explains the small amount of linear algebra that is needed. The book uses algorithms and pseudocode to illustrate techniques, provides coding exercises and features sections on mathematical structures, the predicate calculus, recurrence relations, functions for computer science, growth of functions and minimal spanning trees. A student solutions manual (0-13-515917-2) and instructor's manual (0-13-375064-7) are available.

From the Back Cover

This is the only discrete math that has a thread developed through the text holding these various topics together. New to this edition: stronger coverage of logic, graphs, and trees.
