Content
- introduce what is
$n$ -- in the first example is the number of coins being flipped - Add a link for violin plot in lecture 16
- The LLN fails to hold here because the assumption
$\mathbb E|X| = \infty$ is violated by the Cauchy distribution. ->$\mathbb E|X| < \infty$ - state Gaussian distribution is Normal distribution in text
- above1 -> above

Code
- update the code
X = st.bernoulli.rvs(p)
to show they are draws (so we should generate the draws, 10 of them) and link to wikipedia article around independent/quasi-independent. - In section 17.2.4 perhaps add
n=1, n=10
steps with an higher variance.
Content
- consider promoting the theory at the end
17.2.1
above the simulations(?) -- could make it clear and use the code as confirmation. But does a good job of providing intuition. Provide some context around Equation 17.1 - In 17.2.4 -- improve clarity around the loop 1 to 3 (sample of sample means) -- less vague language (use algorithm environment from sphinx-proof)
- In 17.2.4 remove the plot of the histogram in section (keep the violin plots and refer to these plots from the CLT section)
- @pgrosser1 mentioned this paper https://www.jstor.org/stable/43601172?seq=18 (example of Cauchy distribution)
