Introduction

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand weak vs strong LLN
  • Apply to Monte Carlo methods
  • Verify with simulation

Weak Law of Large Numbers

For i.i.d. X1,X2,..X_1, X_2, .. with mean ฮผ\mu and finite variance:

X1+โ‹ฏ+Xnnโ†’Pฮผ\frac{X_1 + \cdots + X_n}{n} \xrightarrow{P} \mu

Interpretation: Sample average converges to population mean.

Applications

Apply these concepts to solve real-world problems in probability and statistics.

python
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Example implementation
print("Apply concepts from Law of Large Numbers")
