To discuss mathematical reasoning for understanding logic and to address the methods of valid proof such as mathematical induction.

To discuss important problem-solving skills with the basic techniques of counting. Discussing combinatorial analysis to solve counting problems and to analyze algorithms.

To understand abstract mathematical structures used to represent discrete objects and relationships between these objects. These discrete structures include sets, permutations, relations, graphs, trees, and finite-state machines.

To learn a particular set of mathematical facts with algorithmic thinking and how to apply them.

After reading this subject, students will be able to:
1. Understand set theory, propositions, predicate calculus which will help to improve their mathematical reasoning.
2. Improving skills on permutations and combinations, relations and functions and their applications in Problem solving.
3. Learn concepts of groups, rings and field along with basics of graph theory.
4. Understand recurrence relations and the methods to find out their solutions.
5. Enhance skills in Modeling and algorithmic thinking with discrete mathematics to develop their own models in computer science and data networking applications.
