Advance Concepts in Probability and Statistics, MATH-57067

This is an online class (with two FUN! face to face exams on July 16 and August 2) You may find all lectures, slides and homework assigments on this webpage. There will be no in class meetings, JUST TWO EXAMs. I will not be in my office, face to face meetings are only possible around final exam!! But almost at any time I will be SUPER happy to chat with you using whatsapp/zoom/skype/Microsoft Teams/facebook or simply phone.
