The concept of probability ; 2. Finite sample spaces - combinatorial methods ; 3. Conditional probability - independent events ; 4. Discrete random variables and distributions ; 5. Some important discrete distributions ; 6. Continuous random variables ; 7. Some important continuous distributions N2 - Introduction to Probability offers an authoritative text that presents the main ideas and concepts, as well as the theoretical background, models, and applications of probability. The authors-noted experts in the field - include a review of problems where probabilistic models naturally arise, and discuss the methodology to tackle these problems. A wide-range of topics are covered that include the concepts of probability and conditional probability, univariate discrete distributions, univariate continuous distributions, along with a detailed presentation of the most important probability distributions used in practice, with their main properties and applications ER -
