Discrete mathematics has become popular in recent decades because of its applications to Computer Science . Concepts and notations from discrete mathematics are useful to study or describe objects or problems in computer Algorithm s and Programming Language s. In some mathematics curricula, Finite Mathematics courses cover discrete mathematical concepts for business, while discrete mathematics courses emphasize concepts for computer science majors.

For contrast, see Continuum , Topology , and Mathematical Analysis .

Discrete mathematics includes the following topics:
