Computational discrete mathematics : combinatorics and graph theory with Mathematica / Sriram Pemmaraju, Steven Skiena.

By: Pemmaraju, Sriram V, 1966- [author]
Contributor(s): Skiena, Steven S [author]
Language: English Publisher: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, c2012Description: 1 online resource (xiii, 480 pages) : illustrationsContent type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9781139164849Subject(s): Combinatorica (Computer file) | Graph theory -- Data processing | Combinatorial analysis -- Data processingGenre/Form: Electronic books.DDC classification: 511.6 Online resources: Full text available at Cambridge Online Library Click here to view
Contents:
1. Combinatorica: an explorer's guide: 2. Permutations and combinations 3. Algebraic combinatorics 4. Partitions, compositions, and Young tableaux 5. Graph representation 6. Generating graphs 7. Properties of graphs 8 Algorithmic graph theory.
Summary: With examples of all 450 functions in action plus tutorial text on the mathematics, this book is the definitive guide to Experimenting with Combinatorica, a widely used software package for teaching and research in discrete mathematics. Three interesting classes of exercises are provided--theorem/proof, programming exercises, and experimental explorations--ensuring great flexibility in teaching and learning the material. The Combinatorica user community ranges from students to engineers, researchers in mathematics, computer science, physics, economics, and the humanities. Recipient of the EDUCOM Higher Education Software Award, Combinatorica is included with every copy of the popular computer algebra system Mathematica.
