What is Discrete Mathematics?

Discrete Mathematics concerns processes that consist of a sequence of individual steps.

LOGIC:

Logic is the study of the principles and methods that distinguish between a valid and an invalid argument.

SIMPLE STATEMENT:

A statement is a declarative sentence that is either true or false but not both. A statement is also referred to as a proposition

EXAMPLES:

a. 2+2 = 4, b. It is Sunday today

If a proposition is true, we say that it has a truth value of "true”. If a proposition is false, its truth value is "false". The truth values “true” and “false” are, respectively, denoted by the letters T and F.

EXAMPLES:

Propositions

1. Grass is green.
2. 4 + 2 = 6
3. 4 + 2 = 7
4. There are four fingers in a hand.

Not Propositions

1) Close the door. 2) x is greater than 2. 3) He is very rich

Rule:

If the sentence is preceded by other sentences that make the pronoun or variable reference clear, then the sentence is a statement.

Example:

x = 1 x > 2 “x > 2” is a statement with truth-value FALSE.

Example

Bill Gates is an American He is very rich “He is very rich” is a statement with truthvalue TRUE.
