What should I study before probability?

If you want to master probability theory, you will need to at least know about Measure (mathematics) . The concepts of measure theory will come up almost in every paper you will read in probability.

What math is needed for probability and statistics?

A lot of basic probability theory can be mastered with just a bit of high school algebra and set theory. The exception is continuous random variables which require a working knowledge of calculus. When you start combining different random variables together, the mathematics can become quite hairy.

Is probability a part of calculus?

The Calculus of Probabilities. It suggests a system of rules that are generally useful for calculation, where the more modern “probability theory” has a speculative connotation. Theories may be overthrown or superceded; a calculus can be used within many theories.

How hard is multivariable calculus to learn?

The actual “multivariable calculus” part of multivariable calculus–that is, differentiating and integrating functions of more than one variable–is incredibly easy. The only thing you need to remember is that the variables that you are not differentiating or integrating with respect to are treated as constants.

What is the best book for learning advanced calculus?

Sorry, really not my particular field but I’ve heard that David J. Griffiths is supposed to be a good choice and of course Feynman. Multivariable calculus by james stewart is a very well written and clear text on advanced calculus. The best book for learning multivariable calculus can be gotten from stuvera.

Why study calculus with Stewart?

With MULTIVARIABLE CALCULUS, Seventh Edition, Stewart conveys not only the utility of calculus to help you develop technical competence, but also gives you an appreciation for the intrinsic beauty of the subject.
