Probabitily and Statistics: Theory and Applications

This is an extended and modified translation of the third Swedish edition which has been used at the Royal Institute of Technology in Skholm and at the School of Engineering at Linkoping University. Probability and Statistics has also been used for elementary courses for students of mathematics and science. This book is intended for students who are interested in combining elementary probability theory with applications, statistical theory with applications, and something about the planning of practical investigations in their course of study. A working knowledge of elementary calculus, in particular derivatives and Riemann integrals, is an essential prerequisite.
