Univariate continuous distribution theory
Offered By: The Open University via OpenLearn
Course Description
Overview
This free course looks at a number of the basic properties of statistical models. Section 1 is concerned with the distributions of continuous random variables which are described by their probability density functions (pdfs) and cumulative distribution functions (cdfs). Section 2 is concerned with moments and covers, the concept of expectation or expected value, the familiar notion of the mean, also known as the first moment, two general definitions of moments, variance, random variables linked by linear transformation and finally, how to deal with moments all in one go, using the moment generating function.
