COIT11118 Conceptual Foundations of Computing

The purpose of this course is to introduce some of the mathematics underlying the operation of computer systems and provide a foundation in elementary computer mathematics topics. As well as a review of basic mathematics, the course covers a number of discrete mathematics topics including number systems and arithmetic, data representation, sets and algebra, boolean operators, relations and functions, sequences and combinatorics of graph theory. The course also provides a base for later computing courses that require mathematical skills and concepts.
