If mathematics is the language of electronics, then Deem and Zannini's successful mathematics text is both alphabet and handbook. From decimal numbers and powers of ten, to logic functions and statistics, this seventh edition provides the core relationship to the world of electronics.
Example problems, practice problems, self-tests, end-of-chapter problems, and chapter summaries provide a continuous source of learning. Electronics and Computer Math provides more than 300 examples, more than 1300 practice problems, and more than 2600 end-of-chapter problems. This new edition features additional word problems in many chapters, a glossary, and a free StudyWizard CDROM of chapter review questions.
One of the most indispensable tools in mathematics and electronics today is the scientific calculator. The use of the calculator for problem solving is introduced from the very beginning and integrated throughout the text.
Also available is the Student Study Guide (ISBN 0-13-048782-1). This valuable student support provides guided reinforcement for every chapter. It also provides solutions to selected problems from the text.
