An Analysis of Statements of the Multiplication Principle in Combinatorics, Discrete, and Finite Mathematics Textbooks

The multiplication principle serves as a cornerstone in enumerative combinatorics. The principle underpins many basic counting formulas and provides students with a critical element of combinatorial justification. Given its importance, the way in which it is presented in textbooks is surprisingly va...
