What Are the Best Books on Induction, Congruence, Vectors, and More?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on recommendations for books covering various mathematical subjects, including induction, congruence, vectors, combinatorics, algorithmics, logic, and set theory. For induction, clarification is sought on the specific type needed. Congruence is interpreted as modular arithmetic, with suggestions for introductory number theory books such as Eynden, Sierpinski, and Niven/Zuckerman. Vectors are noted to be typically addressed in trigonometry and multivariable calculus, indicating the need for specificity regarding the desired level of study. For algorithms, the recommended text is "Introduction to Algorithms" by Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, and Stein.

hi!

I need some good books contains these subjext

induction , congrunce , vector , combinatorics ,algorithmics,Logic, set theory

thank you

Can be be more specific about which kind of induction?

For congruence, I assume you mean modular arithmetic . In that case, you're looking for a book on elementary number theory. I used Eynden for an intro to number theory (which covered math. induction, if that's what you meant) but other popular ones are Sierpinski, Niven/Zuckerman and Jones. Vectors are typically covered in a trigonometry class and again in multivariable calculus, so you'll have to be more specific on the level you want. For algorithms, Cormen/Leiserson/Rivest/Stein.

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Hi everyone! I'm a senior majoring in physics, math, and music, and I'm currently in the process applying for theoretical and computational biophysics (primarily thru physics departments) Ph.D. programs. I have a 4.0 from a basically unknown school in the American South, two REUs (T50 and T25) in computational biophysics and two semesters of research in optics (one purely experimental, one comp/exp) at my home institution (since there aren't any biophysics profs at my school), but no...
