As the field of Artificial Intelligence continues to evolve, Generative AI has emerged as a powerful tool in the realm of software development. AI models capable of generating high-quality, human-like code can significantly accelerate the software development process, assist in troubleshooting, and even automate tasks traditionally performed by human developers.

Generative AI models, such as OpenAI, DeepMind, and others, are already demonstrating the ability to write functional code, generate documentation, and assist in code review. These models are not only reducing the time it takes to develop applications but are also making software development more accessible to a broader audience, including non-technical users.

This book is intended to serve as a comprehensive guide for developers, technology leaders, and anyone interested in understanding how to leverage Generative AI in software development. It will cover the underlying technology behind these models, practical use cases, integration into development workflows, and ethical considerations. Additionally, it explores how the democratization of coding through AI will shape the future of software engineering.

By providing insights into real-world applications and best practices for integrating generative AI into the software lifecycle, this book empowers readers to stay ahead of the technological curve in a rapidly evolving industry.

Discrete Mathematics presents the material in an easily accessible manner. Beside the usual content (expanded a little bit), a special writing style is used.

We start with the natural numbers, function and relations, as well as the powerset lattice. The second chapter illustrates set theory with its laws and the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis. Chapter 3 delivers Boolean Algebra, with the double exponential formula for the # different boolean functions. The next chapter covers the induction, direct, and indirect proof. Chapter 5 presents combinatorics: Rules of sum, product, quotient, the pigeonhole principle, in/exclusion, permutation and binomial coefficient, plus Stirling numbers of 1^st and 2^nd kind as well as the Bell number; additionally, the recurrence relation with back- and forward reasoning is offered. We conclude with general and conditional probability, incl. the Monty Hall problem.

Discrete Mathematics presents the material in a lively fashion, including topics which are usually not presented. Providing an annex with questions and solutions it offers the chance to the readers worldwide to grasp the subject in this handy and clearly arranged treatise.
