  2. List of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_probability...

    The Dirac delta function, although not strictly a probability distribution, is a limiting form of many continuous probability functions. It represents a discrete probability distribution concentrated at 0 — a degenerate distribution — it is a Distribution (mathematics) in the generalized function sense; but the notation treats it as if it ...

    Python implementation is located in scipy.stats.levy_stable in the SciPy package. Julia provides package StableDistributions.jl which has methods of generation, fitting, probability density, cumulative distribution function, characteristic and moment generating functions, quantile and related functions, convolution and affine transformations of ...

  4. Probability distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_distribution

    A discrete probability distribution is the probability distribution of a random variable that can take on only a countable number of values [15] (almost surely) [16] which means that the probability of any event can be expressed as a (finite or countably infinite) sum: = (=), where is a countable set with () =.

  5. Bayes' theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes'_theorem

    Beyond, for example, assigning binary truth values, here one assigns probability values to statements. The assertion of B → A {\displaystyle B\to A} is captured by the assertion P ( A | B ) = 1 {\displaystyle P(A\vert B)=1} , i.e. that the conditional probability take the extremal probability value 1 {\displaystyle 1} .

  6. Monty Hall problem - Wikipedia

    [50] [13] [49] The conditional probability of winning by switching is ⁠ 1/3 / 1/3 + 1/6 ⁠, which is ⁠ 2 / 3 ⁠. [2] The conditional probability table below shows how 300 cases, in all of which the player initially chooses door 1, would be split up, on average, according to the location of the car and the choice of door to open by the host.

  8. Bernoulli trial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_trial

    Graphs of probability P of not observing independent events each of probability p after n Bernoulli trials vs np for various p.Three examples are shown: Blue curve: Throwing a 6-sided die 6 times gives a 33.5% chance that 6 (or any other given number) never turns up; it can be observed that as n increases, the probability of a 1/n-chance event never appearing after n tries rapidly converges to 0.

  9. Discrete uniform distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_uniform_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the discrete uniform distribution is a symmetric probability distribution wherein each of some finite whole number n of outcome values are equally likely to be observed. Thus every one of the n outcome values has equal probability 1/n. Intuitively, a discrete uniform distribution is "a known, finite number ...
