Applied Combinatorics
by Mitchel T. Keller, William T. Trotter
Publisher: Georgia Institute of Technology 2013
Number of pages: 345
Description:
The purpose of the course is to give students a broad exposure to combinatorial mathematics, using applications to emphasize fundamental concepts and techniques. Our approach to the course is to show students the beauty of combinatorics and how combinatorial problems naturally arise in many settings, particularly in computer science.
