About This Course
Probability and statistics are everywhere—from A/B testing to medical trials to machine learning. This course builds your intuition by letting you see the math in action.
Instead of memorizing formulas, you'll generate data, run simulations, and watch distributions emerge. The AI tutor can create synthetic datasets on the fly, helping you understand why the Central Limit Theorem works or why Bayes' Theorem feels counterintuitive.
Inspired by Statistics 110 (Harvard) and Seeing Theory (Brown University).
