Combinatorics : Topics, Techniques, Algorithms Paperback / softback
by Peter J. Cameron
Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
Combinatorics is a subject of increasing importance, owing to its links with computer science, statistics and algebra.
This is a textbook aimed at second-year undergraduates to beginning graduates.
It stresses common techniques (such as generating functions and recursive construction) which underlie the great variety of subject matter and also stresses the fact that a constructive or algorithmic proof is more valuable than an existence proof.
The book is divided into two parts, the second at a higher level and with a wider range than the first.
Historical notes are included which give a wider perspective on the subject.
More advanced topics are given as projects and there are a number of exercises, some with solutions given.
