Inhaltsangabe

A Concise Introduction to Pure Mathematics, Second Edition provides a robust bridge between high school and university mathematics, expanding upon basic topics in ways that will interest first-year students in mathematics and related fields and stimulate further study. Divided into 22 short chapters, this textbook offers a selection of exercises ranging from routine calculations to quite challenging problems.

The author discusses real and complex numbers and explains how these concepts are applied in solving natural problems. He introduces topics in analysis, geometry, number theory, and combinatorics.

What's New in the Second Edition:

  • Contains extra material concerning prime numbers, forming the basis for data encryption
  • Explores "Secret Codes" - one of today's most spectacular applications of pure mathematics
  • Discusses Permutations and their importance in many topics in discrete mathematics

    The textbook allows for the design of courses with various points of emphasis, because it can be divided into four fairly independent sections related to: an introduction to number systems and analysis; theory of the integers; an introduction to discrete mathematics; and functions, relations, and countability.
