It should be written by someone who has consistently taught the course over numerous years and is tolerant of varying levels of student/reader backgrounds. Probability with Applications in R by Robert Dobrow is such a book. Passionate about problem-solving methods and strategies, Dobrow offers guided assistance for techniques that can be generalized to a wide range of situations (e.g. taking complements, working with indicator variables, conditioning, etc.). The author also introduces and then emphasizes simulation (by way of the ever-increasing popularity of freeware R) throughout the text in order to illustrate concepts and highlight computational and theoretical results. Real-life data and examples, over 150 applications, and a multitude of simple and provocative exercises are prevalent. Other key features include discussion of probabilistic topics rather than combinatorial ones; multiple "point-of-view" arguments; and an early introduction to random variables"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001414358 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001414358 650_0 $$aProbabilities$$xData processing. 001414358 650_0 $$aR (Computer program language) 001414358 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001414358 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aDobrow, Robert P.$$tProbability with applications in R.$$dHoboken, New Jersey : John Wiley & Sons, Inc., [2014]$$z9781118241257$$w(DLC) 2013013972 001414358 852__ $$bebk 001414358 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=7103835$$zOnline Access 001414358 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1414358$$pGLOBAL_SET 001414358 980__ $$aBIB 001414358 980__ $$aEBOOK 001414358 982__ $$aEbook 001414358 983__ $$aOnline
