Overview

You'll discover what a probability distribution really is: a picture of how likely every possible outcome is. Through simulations and graph-reading you'll learn to read a distribution graph, tell counted outcomes from measured ones, and describe any shape by where it's centered and how spread out it is — all visually, with no calculation required.
