Discrete Mathematics
Please check your PITT email for course information!!
• Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical
structures and objects that are fundamentally discrete
rather than continuous.(like calculus!!)
why Discrete in CS?
Because computers do not process continuous data!
.
• Discrete mathematics and computer science.
Concepts from discrete mathematics are useful for
describing objects and problems in computer algorithms
and programming languages. These have applications
in cryptography, automated theorem proving, and
software development. Simply, Discrete mathematics allows us to better understand
computers and algorithms
