Hallmark Features
  • Student-friendly narrative aids intuitive understanding of real-world priciples underlying mathematical concepts. Motivates engineering students who often perceive the subject as abstract and irrelevant to their practical interests.
  • MATLAB applications encourage students to gain hands-on experience with material presented in the text. Instructors have access to program files provided by the authors, and do not need to create and debug their own code.
  • Extensive collection of exercises (examples, quizzes, and homework problems). Degree of-difficulty of each homework problem clearly labeled. Assists students with the most difficult part of learning probability—going from theory to practical applications.
  • Separate treatment of discrete and continuous random variables. Students, especially those encountering material for the first time, can learn basic principles without the confusion of two different ways of calculating probabilities and averages (sums and integrals). Seeing the same principles twice reinforces the learning experience.
  • WWW support for instructors, especially including solutions to homework problems. Graphical interface enables instructors to generate customized solutions handouts and offers flexibility in the way homework problems are used. Saves instructor time in solving exercises and preparing information for students.
