Introduction to Generating Functions

I have been curious about generating functions and how they can be used to calculate the number of partitions of an integer. Fortunately, there are many videos available on this topic, e.g. generating functions in discrete mathematics – YouTube. I found Kimberly Brehm‘s videos quite informative, she has an amazing mathematics channel!

  2. Generating Functions: Calculational Techniques – Finite Geometric Series
  3. Generating Functions: Calculational Techniques – Fundamental Identity
  4. Generating Functions – Full Practice Questions
  5. Partitions of Integers
