What will I learn?
This concise, hands-on course on random variables equips you to categorise real-world data, select appropriate discrete or continuous distributions, and support choices with robust reasoning. Gain skills in aligning data with probability models, validating assumptions, evaluating alternatives, addressing challenges like censoring and excess zeros, and presenting findings with limitations in clear business reports.
