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. Most, if not all, of the objects studied in finite mathematics are countable sets , such as integers , finite graphs , and formal languages .
Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that can be considered "discrete" (in a way analogous to discrete variables, having a bijection with the set of natural numbers) rather than "continuous" (analogously to continuous functions).
Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete rather than continuous.In contrast to real numbers that have the property of varying "smoothly", the objects studied in discrete mathematics – such as integers, graphs, and statements in logic [1] – do not vary smoothly in this way, but have distinct, separated values.

Discrete integral calculus is the study of the definitions, properties, and applications of the Riemann sums. The process of finding the value of a sum is called integration . In technical language, integral calculus studies a certain linear operator .
Discrete Mathematics is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal in the broad area of discrete mathematics, combinatorics, graph theory, and their applications. It was established in 1971 and is published by North-Holland Publishing Company .
The journal includes articles on pure and applied discrete mathematics. It was established in 1988, along with the SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, to replace the SIAM Journal on Algebraic and Discrete Methods. The journal is indexed by Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt MATH. Its 2009 MCQ was 0.57.
Discrete Analysis was created by Timothy Gowers to demonstrate that a high-quality mathematics journal could be inexpensively produced outside of the traditional academic publishing industry. [1] [2] The journal is open access, and submissions are free for authors. The journal's 2018 MCQ is 1.21. [3]
In discrete mathematics, a discrete fixed-point is a fixed-point for functions defined on finite sets, typically subsets of the integer grid . Discrete fixed-point theorems were developed by Iimura, [ 1 ] Murota and Tamura, [ 2 ] Chen and Deng [ 3 ] and others.
