Discrete Mathematics, a national planning textbook for general higher education in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, was published by Higher Education Press 1998, and the revised edition was published as a national planning textbook in the Tenth Five-Year Plan in 2004. Discrete Mathematics, as a national planning textbook in the 11th Five-Year Plan, has been adjusted and updated several times according to the CCC2005 teaching requirements put forward by the Teaching Steering Committee of Computer Science and Technology Specialty of the Ministry of Education.

Discrete mathematics is divided into six parts: mathematical logic, set theory, algebraic structure, combinatorial mathematics, graph theory and elementary number theory. The book not only has a rigorous and systematic theoretical exposition, but also has a wealth of application examples oriented to the development of computer science and technology, and selects a large number of typical examples and exercises. Each chapter is organized in a modular way, which can meet different teaching requirements. Electronic teaching plans and exercise guidance books supporting discrete mathematics will be launched one after another.
