Advice on the Writing Projects

for Rosen's Discrete Mathematics Textbook

This material is based on and adapted from the Student Solutions Guide for Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications, fourth edition by Kenneth H. Rosen. The Guide contains the full solutions to all of the odd-numbered exercises in the textbook. These solutions explain why a particular method is used, and why it works. For some exercises, one or two other possible approaches are described to illustrate that a problem may be solved in several different ways. The Guide also contains a guide to writing proofs and a list of common errors that students make in discrete mathematics. In order to assist students in preparing for examinations, sample test questions and answers and sample crib sheets, are provided for each chapter. Students find the Guide very useful, and you may wish to order a copy.

Several new references and scores of new links have been added for this Web-based Writing Project guide. Inevitably, some Web links become obsolete. If some of the hot links we provide on these pages do not work, just try another, or do your own searches with a good search engine.

Most of this material was prepared by Jerry Grossman, Professor of Mathematics at Oakland University
