Description
Discrete Mathematics: An Open Introduction by Oscar Levin is a gentle introduction to discrete mathematics, designed for first and second year math majors, particularly those who intend to teach. This textbook began as lecture notes for a course at the University of Northern Colorado, serving both as an introduction to topics in discrete math and the "introduction to proof" course for math majors. The book covers four main topics: counting, sequences, logic, and graph theory, with proofs introduced along the way, including contradictions, inductions, and combinatorial proofs. It features over 470 exercises, including 275 with solutions and 100 with hints, as well as Investigate! activities to support active learning. This third edition brings improved exposition, a new section on trees, and updated exercises, making it an ideal choice for those seeking an inquiry-rich course or a resource for future math teachers.
