MAT-220 Discrete Mathematics for Computing

This course introduces students to ideas and techniques from mathematics that are widely used in computer science. Topics include the fundamentals of logic (propositional and predicate calculus), set theory, relations, recursive structures, and combinatorics. This course will increase students' mathematical sophistication and ability to handle abstract problems. This course carries SUNY General Education Mathematics (and Quantitative Reasoning) credit.
