Boolean Algebra moved to Digital Logic. Permutations; Combinations removed from Combinatorics but being basic and counting being there this doesn't really matter. asymptotics removed, but basics are in asymptotic analysis part of Algorithms spanning trees; Cut vertices & edges; covering; independent sets; Planarity; Isomorphism removed. But based on other topics this just means Planarity and isomorphism are removed.
