What is Discrete Math? How does it fit into the math sequence?
Discrete Math is a relatively new math class at Torrey Pines. It is a college-prep course that students can take after successfully completing Algebra II. Discrete Math includes a variety of topics not typically taught in the traditional mathematics sequence designed for preparing students for Calculus. The units taught in Discrete Math include logic, probability, social theories, inductive/deductive reasoning, linear algebra applications in business, finance models, coding theory, and history of math. Discrete Math focuses on mathematical reasoning and real world applications. For more information, read the Discrete Math Course Profile.
