Rosen's Discrete Mathematics and its Applications presents a precise, relevant, comprehensive approach to mathematical concepts. This world-renowned best-selling text was written to accommodate the needs across a variety of majors and departments, including mathematics, computer science, and engineering. As the market leader, the book is highly flexible, comprehensive and a proven pedagogical teaching tool for instructors. Digital is becoming increasingly important and gaining popularity, crowning Connect as the digital leader for this discipline.
McGraw-Hill Education's Connect, available as an optional add on item, is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it and how they need it - ensuring class time is more effective. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers and may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.
Exposition has been improved throughout the book with a focus on providing more clarity to help students read and comprehend concepts
Many proofs have been enhanced by adding more details and explanations, and by reminding the reader of the proof method used.
New Examples have been added, often to meet needs identified by reviewers or to illustrate new material. Many of these examples are found in the text, but others are available only on the companion website.
Several hundred new exercises, both routine and challenging, have been addressing needs identified by instructors or cover new material, while others strengthen and broaden existing exercise sets.
More second and third level heads have been used to break sections into smaller coherent parts and a new numbering scheme has been used to identify subsections of the book.
The on-line resources for this book have been greatly expanded, providing extensive support for both instructors and students. These resources are described later in the front matter.
For Connect? users, the ReadAnywhere App is a free, downloadable app available on iOS and Android mobile devices. It gives students mobile freedom to access their eBook anywhere, even offline, on their smartphone or tablet. Once chapters are downloaded, students can use the same tools that are available in the eBook. Any notes or highlights they make in the eBook will sync across platforms. Visit https://www.mheducation.com/highered/explore/readanywhere.html for more information.
This textbook includes over 3,800 exercises and 750 examples, from straight forward problem that develop basic skills to a large number of intermediate and challenging exercises. Exercise sets also contain special discussions that develop new concepts not covered in the text, enabling students to discover new ideas through their own work. Answers to odd numbered problems are in the back of the book. Worked out solutions for these odd numbered problems are in the printed Student's Solutions Guide. Complete solutions for the even numbered problems are available for the instructor only in the Instructor's Resource Guide.
This edition contains historical information, biographies, & updates on the latest discoveries. The background of many topics are succinctly described in the text using historical footnotes and brief biographies of more than 65 mathematicians and computer scientists who were (and are) important contributors to Discrete Mathematics.
Rosen's writing style is direct and pragmatic. Precise mathematical language is used without excessive formalism and abstraction. Care has been taken to balance the mix of notation and words in mathematical statements.
This text has been proven to be easy to read and understand by beginning students. There's no mathematical prerequisites beyond College Algebra for almost all of this text, and the few places in the book where calculus is referred to, are explicitly noted.
Also available with this edition is MHE's Online Learning Center that features numerous instructor resources including solutions to the problems, an image library, new links to hundreds of external websites relevant to the text material, in-depth explorations of applications, and new lecture PowerPoints for each chapter. You will also find a test bank for each chapter that allows instructors to assign online homework and quizzes - this online homework is gradable and can be edited by instructors.
