Distribution Shapes and the Uniform Model

Overview

You'll deepen your feel for the shape of a distribution — counting its peaks, judging its symmetry, and following its tails. Then you'll meet your first named distribution: the flat uniform shape, where every outcome is equally likely, which becomes the simplest baseline against which every other shape is compared.
