The students will get a proof that, beside the continuous mathematics, also discrete mathematics is a basic discipline whose knowledge is a necessary condition for a successful creative work of an engineer.

The students will learn about the fundamentals of ordered sets, lattices and Boolean algebras. They will learn to minimize Boolean functions and realize them by logic circuits. They will also get acquainted with the most usual types of automata and their properties, with regular languages and with the problem of determinism.
