Textbook is essential.
Teaching Staff:
Taught by Johanna Franklin. Friendly and humourous teacher. She is hardworking and always ready to help students by giving consultation. Wonderful experience. However her designation is Visiting Fellow, hard to get the chance to be taught by her again.
Assessment Details:
Midterm: 30% Tutorial participation: 5% Final exam: 65% Try the questions at the end of each chapter from the textbook. Cos the lecturer not the same as previous batch, trying out the exam papers hv no much use. The qns she set is relatively simpler than the previous batch. Midterm would be consider easy.
Overall Experience & Feedback:
Content relative ok. Not too tough or easy. Got a nice lecturer! This is quite an isolated module, not a prerequisite for other higher level modules.

Content? What content? There's almost no content taught at all. Just learn the few important concepts, then know how to apply them, and you're done!
Teaching Staff:
Visiting faculty, Dr Lim, very funny. Everytime he tries to show some example in class, because he's working the question on the spot, he'll make some careless mistake, then he'll get stuck somewhere or find out that his answer is wrong. Then he'll walk around the class, mutter to himself, and decide it's time for a break! Woohoo! And his handwriting quite bad, so must download his notes and read again. If you really want to know immediately, just shout out and ask. Then he'll say "Is my handwriting really that bad?", and the class will all say yes :D
Assessment Details:
1 mid-term, 2 homework. Homework all quite easy and doable. Mid-terms are super slack. Average mark was 70+ i think. But different lecturer, so may change things.
Overall Experience & Feedback:
This module was very slack. Just go for lecture, listen and laugh, then finish. But this module is quite useless, because everything you learn will probably never be seen elsewhere again. But very interesting module. Teach you counting and pidgeonhole principle and stuff like that. Helps if you want to go casino and gamble, then you can figure out how many ways to lose all your money.
Tutorials also very simple, either you know how to do, or you don’t. Mostly is duno how to do, so just do the few questions you can, and go n listen at tutorials. Very efficient.
But probably new lecturer, since that year was visiting faculty. So sad.

3.3
Content: 3 Faculty: 4 Experience: 3 Workload: 3Module Content:
Stuff like Permutations & Combinations, balls in boxes, binomial/multinomial coefficients (1st chap of ma2216/st2131 probability, but at slower pace), pigeonhole principle, PIE (principle of inclusion exclusion), recurrence relations, generating functions. The last topic is arithmetic progressions, but I think only this lecturer include this topic. Students who took H3 maths back in JC will find everthing up to recurrence relations familiar. New stuff will be a more detailed exposure to set partitions, integer partitions & generating functions.
Teaching Staff:
Taught by Mr Toh Pee Choon. Took all the tutorials (about 4) since the population is quite small. He already declared during the first lecture that his exams will not be easy at all (think of his ma1101r in sem1) and it's true, his (ma2214) exams are harder than previous sems'. His tutorial qns are quite hard.
Assessment Details:
2 tests (total 30%), 1 finals ( 60%), CA(10% , tutorial participation). No helpsheet allowed for tests and finals, but this may vary from lecturer to lecturer. There's no homework.
Overall Experience & Feedback:
This is considered an “applied math” module in the sense that the questions are more of a computational type, and less proving type. I took this to satisfy my List II requirement (I am from applied math major).
Not much lengthy abstract proofs to read, however, some of the concepts and examples might not be too easy to understand. Also, the harder combinatorics questions will need more thought, so doing or trying of tutorials is quite important. For combinatorics it is important to try, because one may understand the example but not know how to apply.
Overall this is an interesting module.
