Course Overview

The Probability: Basic Concepts and Discrete Random Variables course has been formulated by the experts to provide the details of mathematical probability about data science as a domain. The programme will further help students to carve out a career in the field of data science and as actuarial scientists. 

The course contains- sample space, Bayes theorem, expected values, CDFs, conditional probability, and many more. The Probability: Basic Concepts and Discrete Random Variables online course discusses important models with respect o]to probability distribution models including- binomial distributions, Bernoulli theorem, negative binomial distribution, geometric distribution, possession distribution, and uniform distribution. The Probability: Basic Concepts and Discrete Random Variables training will introduce the enrolled applications with probability mass functions and joint distribution methods so that they can learn about mathematical probability in detail meet their expected career goals and gather more information in the area of science and computers.

This course is self-paced which means the students will be able to access the course content in their own preferred time. The candidates will only be getting a limited period to view and learn the course content in the audit mode whereas the verified track offers unlimited course access along with a certification of completion.
