Probability Distribution

Probability Distribution is a statistical function that describes all the possible values and likelihoods that a random variable can take within a given range. Coursera's Probability Distribution catalogue teaches you the fundamental concepts of probability theory, including the properties and types of probability distributions like Binomial, Normal, and Poisson distributions. You'll learn about concepts such as expected values, variance, standard deviation, and moments. You'll also learn how to use these distributions to make predictions, analyze data, and solve real-world problems in various fields such as engineering, data science, economics, and risk management. The knowledge gained will allow you to model uncertainties and understand the underlying patterns in complex datasets.
