Discrete Mathematics

## Discrete Mathematics: Foundations and Applications

### Introduction

Discrete mathematics deals with countable, distinct objects. It includes the study of algorithms,

graph theory, combinatorics, and logic, which are crucial for theoretical computer science.

### Key Concepts

1. **Set Theory**: A set is a collection of distinct objects. Example: Set A = {1, 2, 3}.

2. **Propositional Logic**: Deals with statements and their truth values. Example: 'P AND Q' is true if

both P and Q are true.

3. **Combinatorics**: Studies counting methods such as permutations and combinations.

4. **Graph Theory**: Studies graphs, which are mathematical structures used to model pairwise

relations between objects.

### Example Problems

- Prove that a graph is connected.

- How many ways can 4 objects be arranged?

### Applications

Discrete math is the foundation of computer science, with applications in algorithms, cryptography,

and network theory.

### Visual Representation

Graphs and diagrams are used to represent relationships in combinatorics and graph theory.
