Presents methods for solving counting problems and other types of problems that involve discrete structures. This work illustrates the relationship of these structures to algebra, geometry, number theory and combinatorics. It addresses topics such as information and game theories. > \nMethods Used to Solve Discrete Math ProblemsInteresting examples highlight the interdisciplinary nature of this area \nPearls of Discrete Mathematics presents methods for solving counting problems and other types of problems that involve discrete structures. Through intriguing examples, problems, theorems, and proofs, the book illustrates the relationship of these structures to algebra, geometry, number theory, and combinatorics. \nEach chapter begins with a mathematical teaser to engage readers and includes a particularly surprising, stunning, elegant, or unusual result. The author covers the upward extension of Pascal\u2018s triangle, a recurrence relation for powers of Fibonacci numbers, ways to m0
