Goal(s)

Learning outcomes: at the end of this course, students will be able to :

  • Use basic probability formalism to model a situation in which chance is involved (in particular, the notions of contingency, event, conditional probability, independence and incompatibility).
  • Solve practical problems requiring the manipulation of discrete and continuous random variables, as well as couples of random variables

Content(s)

his course reviews the main conceptual difficulties in probability concerning the following notions:
-Conditional probability
-Random variable
-Probability law
-Probability density
-Pairs of random variables
-Conditioning
Each lesson is illustrated by a concrete situation that serves as a pretext for highlighting the main difficulties linked to the concepts involved.

Prerequisites

Basics of analysis (derivation, integration, sum of series, standard functions).

Test

Students are asked to submit a report on the support course (maximum of 2 pages + any appendices) in which they explain the three main contributions they feel this course has made, based on what they have experienced during the session.
The grade is then taken into account as a bonus for the probability course.
