Class Overview

Probability provides logic to a world full of randomness and uncertainty. This class provides tools for understanding data, science, philosophy, engineering, economics, and finance. You learn not only to solve complicated technical problems but also to apply these solutions daily.
In examples ranging from medical testing to sports forecasting, you will get a solid foundation for studying statistical reasoning, stochastic processes, randomized algorithms, and other topics where probabilities are needed.
The need to understand the various uncertainty in our world made me create this class. If you will like to learn the reason behind several phenomenons such as sports forecasting, the stock market, etc. this class is for you.
You will learn:
How to think about uncertainty and opportunity
How to make a reasonable forecast
A historical approach to understanding stochastic variables
General probability distribution used in statistics and data science
How to obtain the expected value of random numbers
How to tackle complex problems using conditional probabilities
