The aim of the course:
Concepts of discrete mathematics is suitable for the problem of computer algorithms, programming languages, cryptography applications and software development. The operation logic of digital computers is discrete. Applications of discrete math are social sciences, electrical engineering, computer sciences, cryptology and business science. Therefore, the aim of this course is to examine discrete structures within discrete mathematics and to give the applications for different disciplines.
