MIT 18.200 Principles of Discrete Applied Mathematics, Spring 2024 Instructor: Peter Shor View the complete course: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/18-200-principles-of-discrete-applied-mathematics-spring-2024 YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUl4u3cNGP61p2fXeXjNCrfNHFwyW-bl0 We show how to use generating functions to solve linear recurrence equations. In particular, we use generating functions to derive an expression for Fibonacci numbers. We then discuss generating functions with two variables.
