The Logic of Teaching Calculus. Ronald G. Douglas, Ed. Washington, D. Education Ph. Good book for self learners. Oct 25, hyacinth rated it really liked it. Clear and concise, few textual errors in the latest edition for a book of this size.
Decent exercises. Would recommend as a relatively breezy introduction to proof-writing and select topics logic, graph theory, etc. Mar 03, Michael rated it really liked it. Comprehensive guide to discrete mathematics. Jun 08, Shelly rated it really liked it.
I don't read too many textbooks that are actual textbooks, but this was a necessary read as I could not quite understand my professor's instructions. I actually read this one and made a wonderful grade in my graduate course because of it.
I found some concepts and problems to be too simple and other too complex for what I read in the chapter. I'm very glad that the author made this readable as there are some mathematics textbooks, specifically one of calculus textbooks, that make it challenging I don't read too many textbooks that are actual textbooks, but this was a necessary read as I could not quite understand my professor's instructions.
I'm very glad that the author made this readable as there are some mathematics textbooks, specifically one of calculus textbooks, that make it challenging on students to really understand the material. Sep 15, This book is too wordy and not rigorous. The author fills pages by explaining basic subjects that need only a paragraph or two. It's like written for IQ 80 or less.
The entire content of this pages book can fit nicely under pages. I am new to discrete math, and I read half of this book in 2 days! It's a shame that many classes use this book. It seems a strong relationship happened between teachers and publishers. Oct 14, Michael Brashier rated it liked it Shelves: academics. I've been reading and doing problem sets from this book for about 6 weeks now as part of a foundation course for a grad school program.
Some things can be unnecessarily complicated. I was sometimes confused by similiar names to describe different variables within a problem. Why not just use very distinct names? Aug 12, Zach rated it liked it. There are books that teach proof techniques much more efficiently and cover only what is important and reasonable for one semester. I want math problems not how to write an algorithm.
Feb 29, Shami rated it it was amazing. Some may think it strange to give a text book 5 stars, but this book is brilliant. I read it over the break cover to cover.
If you are studying programming and computer science, this book is invaluable. The author's writing style is so clear and careful. She seems genuinely interested in helping and inspiring students.
Feb 08, Frances added it. Read this for my discrete maths course. Actually pretty interesting actually enjoyed taking notes for it, for once , even if a lot of it we didn't actually need in class. Make sure you get the solutions manual, too. Apr 28, Greg Tatum rated it really liked it Shelves: , technology-math. Such a tome. It took awhile to finish, but was worth it.
Feb 01, Zabee marked it as to-read. Magically clear and fun. Everyone should read. Jun 23, Saad rated it it was amazing. Language: English. Brand new Book. Author Susanna Epp presents not only the major themes of discrete mathematics, but also the reasoning that underlies mathematical thought. Students develop the ability to think abstractly as they study the ideas of logic and proof. While learning about such concepts as logic circuits and computer addition, algorithm analysis, recursive thinking, computability, automata, cryptography and combinatorics, students discover that the ideas of discrete mathematics underlie and are essential to today's science and technology.
