Probability and Statistics
This chapter aims to provide the fundamentals of probability and statistics. This is an essential topic, and most of the advanced topics and majority of the applied examples are rooted in probabilistic-based simulations. First the differences between discrete and continuous random variables are explained. Next, the properties of several widely-used distributional models are discussed. Finally, the concept of multivariate distributions and joint probability functions is presented.
