Descripción
Art of Problem Solving Introduction to Counting and Probability Textbook and Solutions Manual 2-Book Set : Learn the basics of counting and probability from former USA Mathematical Olympiad winner David Patrick. Topics covered in the book include permutations, combinations, Pascal's Triangle, basic combinatorial identities, expected value, fundamentals of probability, geometric probability, the Binomial Theorem, and much more. The text is structured to inspire the reader to explore and develop new ideas. Each section starts with problems, so the student has a chance to solve them without help before proceeding. The text then includes solutions to these problems, through which counting and probability techniques are taught. Important facts and powerful problem solving approaches are highlighted throughout the text. In addition to the instructional material, the book contains over 400 problems. The solutions manual contains full solutions to all of the problems, not just answers. This book is ideal for students who have mastered basic algebra, such as solving linear equations. Middle school students preparing for MATHCOUNTS, high school students preparing for the AMC, and other students seeking to master the fundamentals of counting and probability will find this book an instrumental part of their mathematics libraries. Our site includes a free innovative online learning system, Alcumus, and a free collection of videos, both aligned to this textbook. Text: 256 pages. Solutions: 120 pages. Paperback. 10 7/8 x 8.

Not an introduction book for a complete novice
This is indeed a great book for developing a strong mathematical foundation, but not an introduction book for a complete novice. I have a of lot grit as an intellectual, so I stuck with the challenge; I enjoyed it and improved tremendously as a mathematician and problem solver. However, I was a complete novice when I first began working with the text when it came to mathematics and an even greater novice at the creative problem solving that is featured in this text and the mathematical competitions that this text can be associated with too such as the AMC 10. My evaluation is that this content is fit for students who have done relatively well at the AMC 8 and MOEM, or who could do well, but not the average middle school, high-school, or even college student. If you have never participated in, or have never considered participating in the MOEM, Mathcounts, AMC, AIME, USAJMO, USAMO, IMO, AMATYC, Putnam, or any other math competitions, or have never heard of these competitions, or any other math competitions, then chances are this book is not for you.
