The new 6th edition of Applied Combinatorics
builds on the previous editions with more in depth analysis of
computer systems in order to help develop proficiency in basic
discrete math problem solving. As one of the most widely used book
in combinatorial problems, this edition explains how to reason and
model combinatorically while stressing the systematic analysis of
different possibilities, exploration of the logical structure of a
problem, and ingenuity. Although important uses of combinatorics in
computer science, operations research, and finite probability are
mentioned, these applications are often used solely for motivation.
Numerical examples involving the same concepts use more interesting
settings such as poker probabilities or logical games.

This book is designed for use by students with a wide range of
ability and maturity (sophomores through beginning graduate
students). The stronger the students, the harder the exercises that
can be assigned. The book can be used for one-quarter, two-quarter,
or one-semester course depending on how much material is used.
