What is the definitive discrete mathematics textbook.

Rosen sucks cock. Am willing to read multiple smaller textbooks.

Alan Tucker- Applied combinatorics

That is, assuming you're not a pure math sperg.

Rosen is a very, very good textbook. You're wrong. Explain your reasoning.

Read separate textbooks, brainlet

>Hardy and Wright's Intro to Number Theory
That book is shit. Niven and Zuckerman's is miles better.
