In this undergraduate text, the author has distilled the core of
probabilistic ideas and methods for computer and data science. The
book emphasizes probabilistic and computational thinking rather
than theorems and proofs. It provides insights and motivates the
students by telling them why probability works and how to apply
it.The unique features of the book are as follows:This book
contains many worked examples. Numerous instructive problems
scattered throughout the text are given along with problem-solving
strategies. Several of the problems extend previously covered
material. Answers to all problems and worked-out solutions to
selected problems are also provided.Henk Tijms is the author of
several textbooks in the area of applied probability and stochastic
optimization. In 2008, he received the prestigious INFORMS
Expository Writing Award for his work. He also contributed engaging
probability puzzles to The New York Times' former Numberplay
column.
