📝 Summary

Followed the PMF chapter from Stanford's "Probability for Computer Scientists" course to create a notebook on Probability Mass Functions.

Appropriate markdown + LaTeX used to explain the concept.
Added:

  • Clear definitions and properties of PMFs with mathematical notation
  • Visual examples of PMFs for dice rolls with proper explanations
  • Interactive exploration of common discrete distributions (Bernoulli, Binomial, Geometric, Poisson)
  • Comparison between PMF and CDF with visual explanations

Checkout the notebook here:

📋 Checklist

  • I have included package dependencies in the notebook file using --sandbox
  • If adding a course, include a README.md
  • Keep language direct and simple.

This notebook introduces the concept of Probability Mass Functions (PMFs) with relevant visualizations (interactive too) and appropriate explanations.
