具体描述
This book introduces the mathematics that supports advanced computer Programming and the analysis of algorithms. The primary aim of its well-known authors is to provide a solid and relevant base of mathematical skills--the skills needed to solve complex problems, to evaluate horrendous sums, and to discover subtle Patterns in data. It is an indispensable text and reference not only for computer scientists--the authors themselves rely heavily on it! but for serious users Of mathematics in virtually every discipline. Concrete mathematics is a blending of continuous and disCRETE mathematics: "More concretely," the authors explain, "it is the controlled manipulation of mathematical formulas,using a collection of techniques for solving problems." The subject mater is primarily an expansion of the Mathematical Preliminaries section in Knuth's c1assic Art of Computer Programming, but the style of presentation is more leisurely, and individual topics are covered more deeply. Several new topics have been added, and the most significant ideas have been traced to their historical roots. The book includes more than 500 exercises, divided into six categories. Complete answers are provided for all exercises, except research problems, making the book particularly valuable for self-study.

##非常有趣的一本书，由浅入深带你进入计算机的数学。这本书让数学变得生动有趣，奇妙无比。如果你爱数学，你肯定会爱这本书。
##放弃
##虽然也没看完吧 不过它还是教材呢
##I lack a huge amount of practice...
##非科普，绝对不适合工程人士阅读。它首先是一门'数学'，之后才是计算机科学基础。如果想完全看懂，建议先做一个多（>1）年计划。
##课本好嘛！！！！！！！！！！！！
##书选材不错， 只可惜不深， 如组合类计算不如看专门书籍。
