I was at a party on Saturday night and a friend asked what type of math class I am taking. I said “Discrete Math.” In response, she said that she had never heard of it, and was going to Google it. Another friend said that she would not find it on Google because it was... Continue Reading →
Counting & Binomial coefficients with scipy
My Discrete Math final is coming up on December 16. We had a midterm on Sunday, December 3. In the remaining two weeks, the class will cover 5 chapters. I am not sure how the professor will do this in our last 3 hour lecture, but he has taught this class before, so I know... Continue Reading →

While at times reading the text and following the examples is mind bending, at other times it makes perfect sense in a way that causes me to smile. So far, I think that Discrete Math is a combination of geometry... Continue Reading →
