Introduction to Combinatorics | Mathematics

Product Description

What Is Combinatorics Anyway?Broadly speaking combinatorics is the branch of mathematics dealingwith different ways of selecting objects from a set or arranging objects. Ittries to answer two major kinds of questions namely counting questions: how many ways can a selection or arrangement be chosen with a particular set of properties; and structural questions: does there exist a selection or arrangement of objects with a particular set of properties?The authors have presented a text for students at all levels of preparation. For some this will be the first course where the students see several real proofs. Others will have a good background in linear algebra will have completed the calculus …
