Here are the course lecture notes for the course MAS108, Probability I, at Queen Mary, University of London, taken by most Mathematics students and some others in the first semester.

Experimental probability is the probability of an event based on actual experiments or observations. It is calculated by dividing the number of times the event occurs by the total …

In Probability Theory, a probability P(A) is assigned to every subset A of the sam-ple space S of an experiment (i.e. to every event). The number P(A) is a measure of how likely the event A is …

MIT OpenCourseWare is a web based publication of virtually all MIT course content. OCW is open and available to the world and is a permanent MIT activity.

This set of notes is intended as a brief refresher on probability. As a student reading these notes you will likely have seen (in other classes) most or all of the ideas discussed below.

Foundations of probability theory Many things in life are uncertain. Can we ‘measure’ and compare such uncertainty so that it helps us to make more informed decision? Probability …

These lecture notes were written for some parts of the undergraduate course 21-325 Probability that I taught at Carnegie Mellon University in Spring 2018 and 2019.

The following theorems of probability are helpful to understand the applications of probability and also perform the numerous calculations involving probability.

Jan 2, 2025 · One of the goals of the rest of this chapter is learning how to break down complicated probability calculations into easier probability calculations. We’ll look at the first of …

This text is not a treatise in elementary probability and has no lofty goals; instead, its aim is to help a student achieve the proficiency in the subject required for a typical exam and basic real …
