The second week of our course is devoted to probability: since probability is the main language used by almost every data science concept, we will commit some time to deepening our understanding of it. By the end of the week, you will have far more tools in your probability toolkit, which will serve you throughout your AI and machine learning journey.

In this week, we will build up our general framework of statistical estimation, taking from several of the concepts we have discussed and more that we will continue to add this week. We will start by going over the sample mean, and we will analyze how good this is as an estimator. We will then explore the Central Limit Theorem, one of the most effective and widely-used tools in statistics and data science. We will also continue some probability review.

Now that we have learned the important machinery of the Central Limit Theorem, we are ready to learn about confidence intervals this week. Confidence intervals are the main quantities to characterize error bars in almost any area of data science and machine learning. After going through confidence intervals and some examples, we will also explore a more general perspective on estimation: point estimation.

Foire Aux Questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
