The advancement of science in the twentieth century is marked by a special feature -- its transition from deterministic phenomena to probabilistic phenomena. For this reason the probability theory is introduced at the earliest possible level of any academic pursuit. Written at an introductory level, A First Course in Probability takes an intuitive approach to proving the ethereal existence of probability, developing the subject step-by-step to show the accessibility of probability theory. The authors provide hundreds of problems from almost all spheres of life to demonstrate how probability plays a decisive role. Numerous routine and simple examples are solved throughout the text to demonstrate various techniques of solving practical problems. The more difficult problems are solved at the end of each chapter under the heading, "Miscellaneous Examples," and these are useful in solving problems in different competitive examinations. Easy to understand and up-to-date, the text incorporates all the fundamental results while bringing forth the latest results. Some topics that can be avoided in the first reading are star-marked in the text.
