No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1981–82 to 1991–92; the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
An introduction to the combinatorial aspects of the real plane. Main topics covered are the enumeration of various combinatorial objects in the plane, Sylvester's Triad Problem, Pick's Theorem, partitioning the interior of a rectangle into squares of different sizes, an introduction to the theory of convex sets in the plane. Helly's theorem and certain ramifications will be explored. Although the mathematics for this course is technically elementary, the course is intended for third and fourthyear students, and the mathematical maturity of a senior student will be assumed.
As printed in the 1984–85 to 1991–92 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
