{"product_id":"discrete-mathematics-proof-techniques-robert-clark-penner-9789810240882","title":"Discrete Mathematics - Proof Techniques and Mathematical Structures","description":"This book offers an introduction to mathematical proofs and to the fundamentals of modern mathematics. No real prerequisites are needed other than a suitable level of mathematical maturity. The text is divided into two parts, the first of which constitutes the core of a one-semester course covering proofs, predicate calculus, set theory, elementary number theory, relations, and functions, and the second of which applies this material to a more advanced study of selected topics in pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and computer science, specifically cardinality, combinatorics, finite-state automata, and graphs. In both parts, deeper and more interesting material is treated in optional sections, and the text has been kept flexible by allowing many different possible courses or emphases based upon different paths through the volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Clark Penner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9810240880\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789810240882\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/20\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.11h x 6.86w x 1.18d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2000 pg. 15","brand":"Robert Clark Penner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48448095650047,"sku":"9789810240882","price":87.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bee5197c-e88c-440c-8b29-7f0c138805b4.jpg?v=1777236863","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/discrete-mathematics-proof-techniques-robert-clark-penner-9789810240882","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
