Learning outcomes
The course is targeted at fundamental combinatorial reasoning. Basic concepts, methods and models of discrete mathematics are explained. Finally, applications on word problems are practised.
The student understands the basic concepts and principles of discrete mathematics. On a variety of word problems, he/she demonstrates the utilization of the fundamental techniques of combinatorial calculations.
Prerequisites
Mathematics I (MATEA, MATI, MATIA).
