#Visualizing Probability
Probability isn't just about numbers; it's about understanding how likely events are. Here's a quick rundown of how we visualize probabilities:
- Probability Histograms: Bar graphs showing the probability of different outcomes. Think of them as a visual way to see which outcomes are more likely than others. The x-axis shows outcomes, and the y-axis shows probabilities.
- Plots: Graphs showing the relationship between the probability of an event and a continuous variable. Useful for understanding trends and patterns.
Tree Diagrams:
Diagrams showing outcomes in a series of events. Each branch represents a different outcome, and the branch size can represent probability. 🌲 - Great for multi-stage processes. - Probabilities on branches are often conditional.
