Structures of Computer Science
CISC1100 L11

Session I, May 28-June 27
Lincoln Center: TWTh, 1-4 p.m.
3 credits, Werschulz, CRN 10060  

An introductory course in the discrete structures used in computer science and information technology. Emphasis will be placed on the ability to solve problems and develop logical thinking. Topics such as sets, functions, elementary combinatorics, discrete probability, logic, Boolean algebra, recursion, and graphs will be covered through the use of algorithmic and concrete construction. The learned materials are reinforced by computer laboratory assignments. This course also fulfills the mathematical reasoning requirement of the core curriculum.
