MA 202 - Foundations of Discrete Mathematics:A Cross

Institution:

Colorado College

Subject:

Description:

Opportunity to study new mathematical ways of thinking in a cultural context. Much like the division between plants and animals in biology, mathematics can be divided into continuous mathematics (e.g. calculus) and discrete mathematics, the latter of which is the subject of this course. Includes concepts that are fundamental to modern mathematics and computer science. We will also introduce mathematics with important applications to the social sciences. Mathematical topics will be illuminated by examining their treatment in a variety of non-Western cultures, both historical and traditional. Prerequisite: 1 high school course in calculus or computer science. (Not offered 2008-09.) 2 units.
