The course uses two textbooks.
- Discrete Mathematics with Applications by Susanna S. Epp, Fifth Edition
- Probability with Applications in Engineering, Science, and Technology by Matthew A. Carlton and Jay L. Devore, Second Edition
Both are available online through the university library: go to the “Library Resources” entry on Learn and click on the “Resource List” link. For Epp there is a version to view online in a browser; Carlton and Devore is available as a PDF to download.
Note: Please do not use the “Download” option for Epp but instead always choose “Read Online”. Access is capped at a limited number of concurrent users and downloading will block other students for a minimum of 24 hours.
