Applied Combinatorics - Alan Tucker

Updated with new material, this"Fifth Edition" of the most widely used book in combinatorial problems explains how to reason and model combinatorically. It also stresses the systematic analysis of different possibilities, exploration of the logical structure of a problem, and ingenuity. Combinatorical reasoning underlies all analysis of computer systems. It plays a similar role in discrete operations research problems and in finite probability. This bookseeks to develop proficiency in basic discrete math problem solving in the way that a calculus text develops proficiency in basic analysis problem solving.Tucker, Alan is the author of 'Applied Combinatorics - Alan Tucker' with ISBN 9780471863717 and ISBN 0471863718.
