    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Finite Mathematics: An Introduction with Applications in Business, Social Sciences, and Music presents core concepts of finite mathematics in a clear, intuitive fashion designed to reinforce understanding. The book begins with finite mathematics foundations, with explanations and exercises on combinatorics, logic, set theory, sequences and series, functions and functional notation, elementary probability, linear programming and systems, and Markov chains. Later chapters explore and explain a range of finite mathematics applications, from game theory to voting, apportionment, finance, graph theory, and the science and physics of music.

    Written with an accessible, example-based approach, this book engages STEM and non-STEM students alike, preparing them for courses across a range of quantitative fields, social sciences, and the liberal arts. Problem-solving exercises are featured at the conclusion of each subsection, with corresponding answers in the appendix. The book is also accompanied by a solutions manual, sample projects assignments, tests, lecture slides, and datasets on a companion website.
