Mathematics provides the formal structures and reasoning tools that underpin computer science. Mathematical Foundations for Computing introduces core topics essential for problem-solving, algorithm design, and theoretical computing. You will explore sets and set theory, number systems and bases, functions, and relations—building a toolkit to model data, describe systems, and reason about computational processes. Each module connects abstract mathematics to practical computing contexts, from binary representation and function mapping to relational models.

常见问题
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
