Overview: This book gives an overview of the basic notions of probability and statistics. The basic statistical measures are covered, as well as surveys and samples. The concept of probability is explained, together with the basics of combinatorics. The rules of probability are explained, to show how to compute with probabilities, and the notion of a random variable is explained.
