Dance of Probability
 |
Description
Book Introduction
There's no such thing as coincidence, only probability! The secrets of everyday life revealed by numbers.
From lottery numbers and investment returns to algorithmic recommendations offered with a single click.
"Probability" has become ingrained in our daily lives, but do we truly understand these numbers? This book reimagines "probability," a concept once confined to math textbooks, into everyday language.
It contains an attempt to understand the world more deeply through numbers by unraveling the principles of probability that operate in various fields.
In an uncertain world, I hope this book will serve as a practice ground for 'probabilistic thinking' for those who want to make better decisions.
I hope that through this book, you will come to realize that probability is not simply a matter of calculation, but a story about how we interpret and live in the world.
Even in your daily life, numbers are clearly dancing.
Are you ready to dance that dance together?
