Hi all!
Thank you for letting me join you here! My main goal is to read and learn as much as I can from real practitioners of probability theory. I hold BS in chemistry and MS in biochemistry. In graduate school I was introduced to Monte Carlo simulations and really came to enjoy them for modeling biochemical systems. It was at that point I wanted to learn more about probability. I have taken maths through calculus 3, linear algebra, discrete math at university.
Cheers
Since university, I have read both topically and technically on the topic of probability theory. I am currently reviewing discrete math using Discrete Math, An Open Introduction by Oscar Levin and am really enjoying it and working the problems.
I am also working through Probability, Random Variables, and Stochastic Processes by Athanasios Papoulis. The discrete math text is a significant help with working through Papoulis’ text.
I use Mathematica for all my programming needs. I had to learn this software for my physics courses at University, and have since added to that knowledge. I have beginner/intermediate knowledge using this software.
I very much look forward to learning from you all.
Cheers and thank you for having me.
@Biochemprobability Welcome aboard! I am new here too. I study the foundations of math, language, cognition, and phenomenology. I'm particularly interested in computability theory and the foundations of probability, especially for advanced applications of game/decision theory!
@yog Thank you and hello! I look forward to reading your posts. Your topics of interest all sound, well interesting! I look forward to reading your posts.
@Biochemprobability I love to teach mathematics, so do reach out if you ever find yourself stuck and confused! peace
@yog This is so much better than university.
@Biochemprobability the #web is the new #uni!
