Learning objectives​

  • Explain Linearity and Indicator Variables Are the Main Workhorses in the language of the current curriculum, not just the source book.
  • Apply Linearity and Indicator Variables Are the Main Workhorses to one concrete learner task or example inside this semester.
  • Use introduction-to-probability, mathematics-for-computer-science as a selective source of truth when the learner-facing explanation is not enough.

Prerequisites​

  • The earlier concept pages and practice tasks in the current module.

Source books​
