... The probability of obtaining a tail with a coin toss is ½. If a coin is tossed twice, what is the probability that both are tails? Heads? Or one of each? You will investigate this problem using a simulation. ...

Lecture 5: Statistical Independence, Discrete Random Variables
... but statistically quite dependent, because Pr (A|B) > Pr (A). Statistical independence means one event conveys no information about the other; statistical dependence means there is some information. Making this precise is the subject of information theory. Information theory is my area of research, ...

... Pigeonhole Principle • Generalized Pigeonhole Principle: For any function f : X Y acting on finite sets, if n(X) > k * N(Y), then there exists some y from Y so that there are at least k + 1 distinct x’s so that f(x) = y • “If n pigeons fly into m pigeonholes, and, for some positive k, m >k*m, the ...

Section 6.1: Random Variables and Histograms Definition: A
... Definition: A random variable is a rule that assigns precisely one real number to each outcome of an experiment. When the outcomes are numbers themselves, the random variable is the rule that assigns each number to itself. Definition: A probability distribution is usually written in table form with ...

... (a) Suppose you flip all three coins at once, and let X be the number of heads you see (which will be between 0 and 3). What is the expected value of X, E[X]? (b) Suppose instead you put all three coins in your pocket, select one at random, and then flip that coin 5 times. You notice that 3 of the 5 ...
