Probability, Statistics, and Random Signals offers a comprehensive treatment of probability, giving equal treatment to discrete and continuous probability. The topic of statistics is presented as the application of probability to data analysis, not as a cookbook of statistical recipes. This student-friendly text features accessible descriptions and highly engaging exercises on topics like gambling, the birthday paradox, and financial decision-making.
