Discrete Mathematical Structures, Sixth Edition, offers a clear and concise presentation of the fundamental concepts of discrete mathematics. Ideal for a one-semester introductory course, this text contains more genuine computer science applications than any other text in the field. This book is written at an appropriate level for a wide variety of majors and non-majors, and assumes a college algebra course as a prerequisite.

This text emphasizes the physical interpretation of mathematical solutions and introduces applied mathematics while presenting differential equations. Coverage includes Fourier series, orthogonal functions, boundary value problems, Green’s functions, and transform methods. This text is ideal for students in science, engineering, and applied mathematics.

Deze inleiding tot de kansrekening richt zich op studenten van diverse studierichtingen zoals data-, ingenieurs- en natuurwetenschappen aan universiteit en hogeschool, maar ook op wiskundeleraren en eenieder die meer wil weten wat kansrekening inhoudt en hoe het wordt gebruikt. Inzicht en begrip staan voorop – hiertoe worden vele motiverende en leerzame voorbeelden en opgaven gegeven. Het boek behandelt de centrale begrippen en de belangrijkste kansverdelingen

Special attention has been paid to the requirements of the College Entrance Board. The book contains more material than is required for some first courses in Trigonometry, but the matter has been so arranged that the teacher can make such omissions as will suit his particular needs.

The trigonometric functions are defined as ratios; first for acute angles in right triangles, and then these definitions are extended to angles in general by means of coordinates.

The student is first taught to...

Over dit boek,

Deze uitgave bevat de belangrijkste leerstof van alle richtingen A, B,C en D van het vwo op examen-niveau.

In dertien afzonderlijke hoofdstukken worden theorie en opgaven als compleet geheel behandeld van: Algebra, analyse, meetkunde, statistiek kansrekening, vectoralgebra, grafen en matrices, rijen en reeksen, dynamische modellen, logica, perspectief en complexe getallen. Van de, in het onderwijs sinds lang gebruikte didactische, concentrische leermethode van Prof. Herbart, ...

Why did the stock market crash more than 500 points on a single Monday in 1987? Why do ancient species often remain stable in the fossil record for millions of years and then suddenly disappear? In a world where nice guys often finish last, why do humans value trust and cooperation? At first glance these questions don't appear to have anything in common, but in fact every one of these statements refers to a complex system. The science of complexity studies how single elements, such as a speci...

The three fixed lights, or windows, subsequently exchanged for our lesser luminaries, were explained one hundred and fifty years ago to signify "the three Persons, Father, Son, Holy Ghost; " and were used to find out the meridian, "when the sun leaves the south, and breaks in at the west window of the Lodge." While the "mossy bed," the ancient signs of disgust and recognition, as well as the primitive name of a Master Mason, are equally obscure at the present day; having been swept away, alon...

The present work is constructed on the same plan as my treatise on Plane Trigonometry, to which it is intended as a sequel; it contains all the propositions usually included under the head of Spherical Trigonometry, together with a large collection of examples for exercise. In the course of the work reference is made to preceding writers from whom assistance has been obtained; besides these writers I have consulted the treatises on Trigonometry by Lardner, Lefebure de Fourcy, and Snowball, an...
