Discrete mathematics using a computer

About this book

"Discrete Mathematics Using a Computer offers a new, "hands-on" approach to teaching Discrete Mathematics. Using software that is freely available on Mac, PC and Unix platforms, a simple functional language allows students to experiment with mathematical notations and concepts - a practical approach that provides students with instant feedback and allows lecturers to monitor progress easily." "Designed for 1st and 2nd year undergraduate students it is ideally suited to self-study. No prior knowledge of Functional Programming is required; everything the student needs is either provided or can be picked up easily as they go along." "Complete with an accompanying instructor's guide, available via the WWW, this volume is intended as the primary teaching text on Discrete Mathematics courses but will also provide useful reading for Conversion Masters and Formal Methods courses."--Jacket.
