What is This Course All About?
Topics covered fall into three categories: (1) counting theory, (2) induction and recursion, and (3) graph theory. The course also introduces the student to the attitudes and techniques of mathematical thinking.
The mathematician does not study pure mathematics because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful.
