Can you tell me what Discrete Mathematics is all about?

Question

how important is sequences, series(maclaurin, taylor and fourier0 to computer programming?

Answer 1

Well, maybe not what it is *all* about That's a rather large topic.

In discrete math, numbers are restricted to certain values or, another way of saying the same thing, there is a finite difference between the numbers that can exist. Contrast this with a continuous number system, in which, for any two numbers that are not equal, you can find infinitely many numbers that lie between them in value.

For example, the integers are a discrete number system, whereas the reals are a continuous number system.

Computer math is inherently discrete, although it can in many cases form a useful approximation to a continuous system.

The series that you mention have been developed for continuous number systems, but I believe they have analogues for discrete systems.

Answer 2

Discrete mathematics, also called finite mathematics, is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete, in the sense of not supporting or requiring the notion of continuity. Most, if not all, of the objects studied in finite mathematics are countable sets, such as integers, finite graphs, and formal languages.

Discrete mathematics has become popular in recent decades because of its applications to computer science. Concepts and notations from discrete mathematics are useful to study or describe objects or problems in computer algorithms and programming languages. In some mathematics curricula, finite mathematics courses cover discrete mathematical concepts for business, while discrete mathematics courses emphasize concepts for computer science majors.

Answer 3

In mathematics, Pascal's rule is a combinatorial identity about binomial coefficients. It states that for any natural number n we have Haha. Hope thats right! (:

Answer 4

mathematics is VERY important to computer programming

Answer 5

Hi. Most computers use FFT for analysis (mathematical).
