A tree diagram is helpful for working with event intersections and conditional probabilities. A tree consists of nodes and branches representing different stages in an experiment. Tree 1 shows an ...
For any event that has multiple outcomes with different probabilities, it can be helpful and illustrative to construct a chart or diagram of the possible outcomes. Tree diagrams are a useful example ...
The course is concerned with behavior of random walks on certain infinite graphs which are currently in vigorous development. This is a topic of dicrete probability are full of surprising and ...
