Cheat Sheet
- Fundamental Counting Principles - Dive into the Rule of Sum and the Rule of Product to count outcomes like a boss, whether you're choosing pizza toppings or outfits. Mastering these rules means you can quickly calculate combinations like 3 flavors × 4 crusts = 12 delicious pizzas! Get the crunchy details Discrete Mathematics - Counting Theory
- Permutations vs. Combinations - Learn why order makes all the difference when you're lining up friends for a selfie (permutations) versus just picking squad members (combinations). You'll use n!/(n-r)! for order and n!/[r!(n-r)!] for no-order scenarios, turning complex problems into simple calculations. Explore more cool tricks Combinatorics and Graph Theory
- De Morgan's Laws - Flip "ands" to "ors" (and vice versa) with a logical twist that makes simplifying boolean expressions feel like solving a mini puzzle. Remember ¬(p ∧ q) ≡ (¬p ∨ ¬q) and ¬(p ∨ q) ≡ (¬p ∧ ¬q) to conquer even the trickiest statements. Practice the magic spells Last Minute Notes - Discrete Mathematics
- Set Operations - Get cozy with unions, intersections, and differences as you mix and match sets like a mathematician DJ spinning tracks. A ∪ B throws a party with all elements, A ∩ B spots the VIPs in both groups, and A − B shows who's left out. Remix your set theory skills Last Minute Notes - Discrete Mathematics
- Relations and Their Properties - Peek into reflexive, symmetric, antisymmetric, and transitive properties to understand how elements within a set form relationships - sometimes they're best buddies, sometimes not. These concepts unlock the doors to equivalence relations and partial orders, the secret societies of math. Build your social network Last Minute Notes - Discrete Mathematics
- Function Types - Discover injective (one-to-one), surjective (onto), and bijective (both!) functions and see how they map elements between sets like perfect matchmakers. Spotting these types helps you solve mapping puzzles in everything from algebra to cryptography. Find your perfect match Last Minute Notes - Discrete Mathematics
- Recurrence Relations - Crack the code of sequences defined by their own history, like the Fibonacci chain where each term is the sum of its parents. Unlocking closed-form solutions turns a recursive maze into a straight path to the answer. Trace the sequence path Discrete Math
- Mathematical Induction - Use the trusty base case and a solid inductive step to topple infinite dominos of proofs, showing that if one statement holds then the next one will too. It's like proving a rumor is true for all your classmates after whispering it to the first person. Start the chain reaction Discrete Math
- Graph Theory Basics - Explore vertices, edges, paths, and cycles to see how networks, maps, and social graphs really work under the hood. Whether you're planning routes or analyzing friendships, these concepts are the building blocks for every networked system. Walk the nodes Discrete Math | Computer Science
- Inclusion-Exclusion Principle - Master the art of counting overlapping sets by adding individual sizes and subtracting their intersections, so you never double-count your treasures. For two sets, it's |A| + |B| − |A ∩ B|; for more, the formula expands like a thrill ride! Balance your set theory Concise Study Companion
