An introduction to the concept of the expected value of a discrete random variable. I also look at the variance of a discrete random variable. The formulas are introduced, explained, and an example is worked through.

Most professors spend lecture on theoretical side of math and proofs of theorems. They only spend a minute or two on its applications and how to use it. JB focuses on that aspect which makes him great teacher for a lot of us including myself.
@TG-wg4tw2 жыл бұрын
not only the prof but alot of book is confusing as he11 too. I'm currently reading the Information Theory book by Cover-Thomas and let me tell you, these E(x) just fly out from no where and a bunch of "information content" "surprise",... etc and basically means the same thing or completely different things but have the same denotation.
@TG-wg4tw2 жыл бұрын
@@SilentRyd wtf learning those theorems and proofs for when you can't wrap your head around the idea ? It's like when you're nearly starve to death and some one comes in, instead of showing you how to hunt they teach you about the mammal evolution.

It's my personal observation that professors are good at making simple facts complicated, which is precisely why parents pay the high tuition. They make an image of authority of something for themselves in front of learner by making easy problems difficult. People pay doctors generously when they are in severe pain, which is in the same blind spot of human nature.

Thanks! Other than 1 year in Georgia, I've lived in Ontario my whole life, and near Toronto for the last 20 or so. But in the last 6 months or so, 4 people have asked me about my accent in face to face conversations. So people are hearing something, but I don't know what it is. I have a tendency to use secondary pronunciations of words that are a little softer than the primary pronunciation. But maybe it's just the small town Northern Ontario Kenora boy showing through :)
