Continuous Distributions, General

Distributions and Densities - Video

This video lecture introduces the cumulative distribution function and discusses properties of the function.

Discrete Distributions, General, Continuous Distributions, General

Random Variables - General Discrete/Continuous Definitions and Assessments

This video outlines the uses of two-ways tables and the different ways these tables can be analyzed. The video uses "real-world" data and problems to frame the concepts.
