Many of the most significant events in our lives involve random chance, whether being struck by lightning, winning the lottery, or losing on the stock market. Probability is the study that accomplishes a seemingly impossible feat: giving a meaningful, numerical value to the likelihood that an event will occur when we do not and cannot know what will happen. In this course, we learn why coincidences are so common and why we must learn to expect the unexpected. Probability today has applications in many arenas, including mathematics, game theory, science, business, sports, genetic inheritance, and meteorology. Probability offers a rich field of inquiry, with questions and insights that are at once mathematical, practical, and philosophical.
