This book provides an introductory overview of random variables and their transformations. The authors approach the topic with statistics students in mind, along with researchers in various fields who are interested in data analysis. The book begins with by defining and explaining mathematical expectation. The authors then discuss transformations of random variables, including distribution functions and special functions. The book also covers joint probability distribution and its applications. The authors have updated and expanded upon their writing on these topics, which they originally covered in their previous book, Statistics for Scientists and Engineers.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
