Probability
The Wolfram Language contains a wide range of functions for probability, as well as hundreds of symbolic distributions.
Calculate factorials using mathematical notation:
| In[1]:= |
| Out[1]= |
For combinations, use Binomial:
| In[2]:= |
| Out[2]= |
Compute probabilities for a binomial distribution:
(Type ESCdistESC for the symbol.)
| In[1]:= |
| Out[1]= |
Calculate the expectation of a polynomial expression:
| In[2]:= |
| Out[2]= |
Get the PDF for a normal distribution in symbolic form:
| In[1]:= |
| Out[1]= |
Make a Plot of the result:
| In[2]:= |
| Out[2]= | ![]() |
Free-form input can be used to calculate the probability of real-world events:
| In[1]:= |
| Out[1]= | ![]() |
