Discrete Mathematics is the basis and foundation of computer sciece For example, cryptography is based on number theory A LOT OF THINGS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE ARE RELATED TO DISCRETE MATHEMATICS AND I THINK THAT COMPUTER SCIENCE STUDENTS IN NITERIA STRUGGLE WITH RESEARCH BECAUSE THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS FACT AND/OR THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF DISCRETE MATHEMATICS IS SUSPECT The topics to include are: Discrete Mathematics Propositional and predicate logic Boolean algebra Functions growth of functions big-O notation Sequences and summations Integers elementary number theory Proof techniques direct indirect contradiction induction Matrices Counting Pigeon hole principle Permutations and combinations Discrete probability Recursive definitions recurrence relations Relations : properties applications representation closures equivalence Graphs : terminology representation isomorphism connectivity paths Computer Science Topics Computers and Computation Computer System Organization Abstraction problem solving algorithms Logic gates and elementary circuits Algorithm design analysis of simple loops Representation (ASCII binary two’s complement floating point instructions Algorithm correctness loop invariants pre-and post-conditions Machine cycle More algorithm correctness Analysis of nested loops Analysis of recursive algorithms Run time organization run time stack Searching and sorting Trees binary search trees traversals A LOT OF THINGS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE ARE RELATED TO DISCRETE MATHEMATICS AND I THINK THAT COMPUTER SCIENCE STUDENTS IN NITERIA STRUGGLE WITH RESEARCH BECAUSE THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS FACT AND/OR THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF DISCRETE MATHEMATICS IS SUSPECT 2 Likes |
