商品描述

This easy-to-follow textbook introduces the mathematical language, knowledge and problem-solving skills that undergraduates need to study computing. The language is in part qualitative, with concepts such as set, relation, function and recursion/induction; but it is also partly quantitative, with principles of counting and finite probability. Entwined with both are the fundamental notions of logic and their use for representation and proof. 

Features: teaches finite math as a language for thinking, as much as knowledge and skills to be acquired; uses an intuitive approach with a focus on examples for all general concepts; brings out the interplay between the qualitative and the quantitative in all areas covered, particularly in the treatment of recursion and induction; balances carefully the abstract and concrete, principles and proofs, specific facts and general perspectives; includes highlight boxes that raise common queries and clear confusions; provides numerous exercises, with selected solutions.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本易於理解的教科書介紹了本科生學習計算所需的數學語言、知識和解決問題的技能。這種語言部分是定性的,包含集合、關係、函數和遞歸/歸納等概念;但它也部分是定量的,涵蓋計數原則和有限概率。邏輯的基本概念及其在表示和證明中的應用與這兩者交織在一起。

特色:將有限數學作為思考的語言教授,與獲得的知識和技能同等重要;採用直觀的方法,重點放在所有一般概念的例子上;突顯定性與定量在所有涵蓋領域中的相互作用,特別是在遞歸和歸納的處理上;小心平衡抽象與具體、原則與證明、具體事實與一般觀點;包括突出框,提出常見問題並澄清混淆;提供大量練習題,並附有選定的解答。
