Discrete mathematics (also finite mathematics) deals with topics such as logic, set theory, information theory, partially ordered sets, proofs, relations, and a number of other topics.
For other branches of mathematics, there are tools that support programming...

As for whether that means a conscious love of mathematics - that's harder to say.

I haven't yet found a good answer. Or any answer, for that matter. I've been asked to teach a discrete structures for CS course, but at the same time make sure it's not a discrete mathematics course -- that's offered by the Mathematics department.
Many...

First of all, I don't see much distinction between logic and mathematics; the latter is just are the benefits of modeling programming languages or language features on mathematics? What for real-life systems.
