L08.2 Probability Density Functions

[@miraycelik2002]

thank you so much for making such valuable content online and open (+free) for every student out there I had hard time understanding this concepts in my uni (not to complain) Prof Tsitsiklis you are amazing

[@thomasbates9189]

He is amazing. I bought his book on probability, and it is the best book out there!

@@thomasbates9189 did not know he had a book def be checkin! Tysm

[@MrCEO-jw1vm]

The videos are short in length, but very rich in well-explained info. Thanks Prof!

[@NaofumiShinomiya]

"Probably" the best online course on probability on the internet. Thanks to Prof. Tsitsiklis and MIT OpenCourseWare

Awesome lecture!..Thank you, Prof. Tsitsiklis & MIT 😊

Thanks much for explaining why the PDF at a point is zero. This has been mystifying me for some time.

Thank you Prof, MIT!

this was amazing..thanks!

not getting anything , described in a very difficult way

[@shikhasingh6865]

Sir, am I right with my concept that for discrete time random variable the pmf gives the probability whereas for continous time random variables the pdf gives the probability density .please help me sir

[@faransheikh8546]

Yes you are right, pdf gives the probability density, integrating it will give the probability

Mass sitting on top of a number? What is this ridiculously unnecessarily complex terminoligy? WIth discrete set of numbers it's just the probability of hitting that number, why do you have to use this hard to understand language?

[@yulunzeng7805]

With your tone, the probability that MIT will ever care about you is 0.

Actually, I came here after a long research on the pdf subject and this analogy gave me some intuition of it.

[@edgarsvilums1550]

@@QZainyQ I can accept that. But for afresh start I went elsewhere.

You don’t know what mass is?
