Prerequisite: Algebra II

Discrete Mathematics is the study of mathematics as it applies to systems that have a finite number of elements. A few of the topics that will be explored are set and binary systems, logic, graph theory, simple games, and the geometry of fractals. Technology will be used when appropriate throughout the course. Discrete Mathematics is usually considered important for potential application to computer science, but is not limited to that area. This course is designed for students who have successfully completed Algebra II. It may be an alternative to trigonometry, pre-calculus, or calculus.
