<dedication>

<p permid="KDJ">
This textbook is a testament to our collaborative spirit and the Open Education movement, aiming to make higher education accessible to all by providing approachable resources for students to learn open-source mathematics software.
</p>

<p>
The creation of this textbook was a joint effort by a dedicated and inspirational team. The quality of our work reflects our collective contributions and enthusiasm.
</p>

<p>
We would like to acknowledge Hellen Colman, Professor of Mathematics at Wright College and our co-author, who served as our guiding star. Her mathematical expertise ensured the accuracy and relevance of our material. Inspired by her teaching and Discrete Math lectures at the City Colleges of Chicago-Wilbur Wright College, this project owes much to her mentorship and support. Her encouragement and trust have been invaluable, shaping our perspectives and approaches from our Discrete Math course through to this OER development.
</p>

<p>
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Ken Levasseur for his invaluable guidance and expertise in creating open-source textbooks. His contributions have significantly enhanced the quality and accessibility of our work.
</p>

<p>
A special thanks is due to Tineka Scalzo, Wright College librarian, for her valuable advice on publishing and copyright issues. Her insights have been instrumental in helping us navigate the complexities of academic publishing.
</p>

<p>
We also express our gratitude to the many talented developers and mathematicians within the open-source communities. The PreTeXt community played an essential role in our authoring process, while the SageMath community provided crucial subject matter expertise. We are very grateful to everyone who has worked to develop Sage and to the creators of PreTeXt.
</p>

<p>
We would also like to thank our peer reviewers and proofreaders, whose meticulous attention to detail ensured the clarity and quality of this textbook. Your contributions have been instrumental in bringing this project to fruition.
</p>

<p>
Finally, we express our deepest gratitude to all the contributors who made this project possible. Your dedication and collaborative spirit have made a lasting impact on this work and the field of open education.
