With this book, you'll learn how to solve statistical problems with Python code instead of mathematical formulas, using discrete probability distributions rather than continuous mathematics. Once you get the math out of the way, the Bayesian fundamentals will become clearer and you'll begin to apply these techniques to real-world problems. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Bayesian statistical methods are becoming more common and more important, but there aren't many resources available to help beginners. Based on undergraduate classes taught by author Allen B. Downey, this book's computational approach helps you get a solid start. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUse your programming skills to learn and understand Bayesian statistics \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork with problems involving estimation, prediction, decision analysis, evidence, and Bayesian hypothesis testing \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGet started with simple examples, using coins, dice, and a bowl of cookies \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn computational methods for solving real-world problems \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAllen Downey is a Professor of Computer Science at Olin College of Engineering.
