As students‚ we are taught the basics about mathematics. What the core properties of addition‚ subtraction‚ multiplication and division mean. How they work‚ and if we are lucky‚ we go into a little history of these methods. For those of us who have learned history‚ we learned that the basis for modern mathematics came from the Greeks and their writings. While this is correct‚ to truly understand the historical aspect of mathematics and its origins‚ one must study a time before the Greeks‚ when math

DISCRETE MATHEMATICS Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete rather than continuous. In contrast to real numbers that have the property of varying "smoothly"‚ the objects studied in discrete mathematics – such as integers‚ graphs‚ and statements in logic – do not vary smoothly in this way‚ but have distinct‚ separated values. Discrete mathematics therefore excludes topics in "continuous mathematics" such as calculus and analysis. Discrete objects
