The trajectory of solving combinatorial and probabilistic problems from the school curriculum to applied disciplines in technical universities

Azizyan I. A., Mironova E. I., Sivirkina A. S.

This article discusses some aspects of the study of combinatorics and probability theory in the context of continuity of school and University education. General problems of combinatorics are presented, and particular problems are considered in the framework of studying applied disciplines. The necessity of strengthening the probabilistic and statistical thinking of the student at all stages of teaching mathematics, for better assimilation of practical problems, is justified.

Keywords:combinatorics, probability theory, and reliability theory.
