Publisher's Synopsis
This revision of a survey of combinatorial analysis and graph theory is designed for students specializing in mathematics and computer science. Three principal aspects of combinatorial reasoning are emphasized in the book: the systematic analysis of different possibilities, the exploration of the logical structure of a problem, and ingenuity. Keeping theory to a minimum, it uses numerical examples to demonstrate the combinatorial reasoning involved in computer science, operations research and finite probability.;The cloth edition of this book was published April 1985.
