Lecture 06

• In lecture 06, we discussed normal and lognormal distributions. In addition to examples 2.34 and 2.32, we solved exercises 2.7.4 and 2.7.6.

• I want to re-emphasize that in doing data science, the intermediate goal is to estimate the unknown density of the data. Once you know the density, we can make many probabilistic and statistical statements. The challenge is how we estimate the unknown density of your data.
