Lecture 21

For Lectures 21–23 I plan to focus only on examinable topics. Lecture 24 should have space for some digressions, my favourite mathematical joke, and some wrapping up.

I mentioned the beta distribution today. There is more about that distribution in Appendix D. I became much better acquainted with this distribution myself when I was doing some work for a reinsurance company last year.

Today I handed out the feedback forms. If you were not at the lecture and would like to give feedback you can do it on-line as described here: Feedback request.
