I am finding discrete mathematics to be very useful. Please let me share a fact sheet I made for myself to help me remember some key concepts in a quick way (attached):

Discrete Mathematics for Public Health Epidemiology: A Fact Sheet
Important concepts for me
GV Fant
Public Health Epidemiologist
Introduction:
Discrete mathematics provides a powerful toolset for analyzing and understanding complex public health issues, particularly those involving discrete data. Discrete data, which takes on distinct, countable values (e.g., number of cases, yes/no responses), is common in public health practice and decision-making. For example, the daily number of new disease cases reported is discrete data. By applying discrete mathematical concepts, public health epidemiologists can better comprehend and address connections between populations and public health outcomes. This fact sheet highlights key concepts from discrete mathematics and their applications in public health epidemiology.
