	Discrete mathematics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Discrete mathematics, also called finite mathematics, is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete, in the sense of not supporting or requiring the notion of continuity.
		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 algorithms and programming languages.
