Description
A Modern Introduction to Probability and Statistics provides a comprehensive understanding of the subject by using real-life examples and data. This textbook addresses the shortcomings of many current texts, which often focus on methods rather than underlying principles. The authors offer a tried and tested course that can be used for self-study or as a supplement to a traditional course. The book includes numerous quick exercises and over 350 exercises with answers and full solutions, making it an ideal resource for students. A website provides access to the data files used in the text, along with additional solutions for instructors. This textbook is suitable for undergraduates studying mathematical statistics courses in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, and Business Studies, as well as engineering students taking intensive statistics courses.
