In this context the book also describes the historical development of analytical probability theory and its tools, such as characteristic functions or moments. The central limit theorem was originally deduced by Laplace as a statement about approximations for the distributions of sums of independent random variables within the framework of classical probability, which focused upon specific problems and applications. Making this theorem an autonomous mathematical object was very important for the development of modern probability theory.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 155mmAuthor: Hans FischerGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical SciencesRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
