welp i dont have a pdf. but i am a third year community college undergrad so im probably the most educated person here. link to the problem bro

Thanks but I'm using itunesU for lectures and I'm looking for a pdf to supplement

>>5873245
Only if you give me a pdf link

If you need some motivation, I'll tell you that the link will describe a situation which contradicts your intuition for an everyday-observable physical concept.

Bumping with free will debate

ok here you go

Well technically I was looking for a recommendation rather than a database, but I'll take it. Here you are:

wow thanks for the seventh grade science fair problem

All probability is 50%, only fools believe otherwise.

I was actually sort of expecting her to post that.
But there's no need to be so negative about it.

He said "intro", I think that's one is not what he's looking for (but, yes, that's the man)

I would say http://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance/teaching_aids/books_articles/probability_book/amsbook.mac.pdf

More difficult paradox, related to the subject : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleeping_Beauty_problem

lol'd hard @ the pic

>>5873487
that's a funny way to misspell 33.34%

Are you familiar with measure theory, OP?

>>5873555
>More difficult paradox

How is it more difficult than Monty Hall?

>>5878824
Quite more.

Because "Monty Hall" is now clearly exposed (paradigm, hypothesis, ...), and so everybody agrees with the solution (it took a long time before it, see wiki).
Sleeping Beauty is more difficult, because 'resolution' depends on how you understand the question (it's often the case in probabilty, see this old one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_paradox_%28probability%29 )

So there are still discussions/interpretations among scientists.

Good way to train your skills in probabilistic intuitions

--> he wanted pdf ! Good books, though

Have a look here OP :
libgen.org/
maybe u can find some of them

>>5883815
Baclawski and Rota is a freely available pdf

http://www.ellerman.org/Davids-Stuff/Maths/Rota-Baclawski-Prob-Theory-79.pdf

>>5883818
Looks like a book for high schoolers. Do you happen to know any probability books on college level?

re - read the whole thread, there are numerous links, from the hardest to the easiest.
I think you can find somethg that suits u

>>5886175
Which one of the links is the hardest?

Someone has been keeping at least 35 threads alive
by bumping them twice a day. Compare the post times of

to the post times in other threads.
It's clear most of these are the same person.

>oh no, people are discussing math on a science AND MATH board

If you don't like it, ignore the thread.

My software says it is you. Congratulations.
