Probability Haiku project

I.I.D. R.V.'s
Make life so much easier
For variances

All the world's events
Randomly distributed
Nothing's for certain

Eve shares with Adam
Two things: apples and functions
of Y given X

Couple copulas
Riveting random ramble
Ordered entropy

How likely is it?
May be insufficient to
Just say "probably"

Probability
Is continuous with its
Ordered statistics

Probability
Will I date Katy Perry?
P() equals 0

The weather last week
Was an outlier. This week
Regress to the mean

Rolling the dice, twice
The sample space? Thirty-six
What is the chance that...?

These distributions
remind me of all the ways
I could go skiing.

Probability
Solves world problems but makes you
Dream in R language

They said "More cow bell!"
But to be honest, cow bells
just aren't quite normool.

don't runif you start
to see distributions all
the time; it's dnorm

Probability
Has difficult problem sets;
Horton prepares us.

Bayesian inference
Must always collect data
to reach conclusion

Probability
of two haikus being the same
is almost zero

These are some moments:
expectations, variance,
skewness, kurtosis.

probability
when R you so nice and fun?
when writing haikus!

I'm exponential
How long have I been this way?
Sorry - I forgot.

Success or Failure
Continuous or Discrete
Probability

Variance of X
is E [(X minus miu) squared],
the square of sigma.

So many functions.
Parameters to enter.
How to track it all?

Formulas are Key
To an Adequate Degree
For at least a B

Using code in R
Makes probability nice
Much more-so than Rice

If you have three balls,
What is the likelihood of
A quarter heads up?

Probability
Frequentist or Bayesian
The counting is hard

Card problems are hard,
So its good my brain ain't lard,
Cuz I need to count!

Random uniform,
Bounded from zero to one.
So nice to work with.

If we know the prior,
the data will guide us to
the posterior.

Thought you were normal
But Bayes says you are different
Heart's torn you or him

Hey May the odds be
ever in your favor - said
no One ever duh!

Hearts, diamonds, spades, clubs
Prob. makes me great gambler
So I'm quitting school!

Problems to submit
Tears fall, much work to be done
I hope this is life.
