Probability Concepts

  • Union of Events: P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)
  • Complement of an Event: P(Ac) = 1 - P(A)
  • Intersection of B and Complement of A: P(B∩Ac) = P(B) - P(A∩B)
  • Conditional Probability: P(B|A) = P(A∩B) / P(A)
  • Intersection of Complements: P(Ac∩Bc) = 1 - P(A∪B)
  • Mutually Exclusive Events: P(A∩B) = 0
  • Independent Events: P(A∩B) = P(A)·P(B)

Binomial Distribution Parameters

  • Mean (μ): μ = n·p
  • Standard Deviation (σ): σ = √(n·p·q)

Binomial Distribution

Notation: B(n, p)

Probability Mass Function: P(X=a) = (na) pa qn-a

Where:

  • n = number of trials
  • p = probability of success
  • q = complement of p (q = 1-p)

Normal Distribution

Notation: X ∼ N(μ, σ)

Important Probabilities:

  • P(Z < a) or P(Z > a) can be found using a standard normal

Spanish Renaissance Literature: Mystics, Humanists and Poets

Santa Teresa de Jesús was born in Ávila in 1515. She was a mystic. At the age of 7 she ran away from home because she wanted to seek God. At 12 her mother died, and she went through a spiritual crisis. At 16 she stayed in a convent. At 19 she became very ill and was paralyzed for 2 years. She recovered and founded the Order of the Discalced Carmelites. She died in 1592. Her two prose works were:

  • Camino de perfección (The Way of Perfection)

Ključni autori i djela svjetske i hrvatske književnosti

Albert Camus i roman Stranac

Albert Camus francuski je književnik kasnoga modernizma, koji se uz Jean-Paula Sartrea smatra najznačajnijim predstavnikom književnoga egzistencijalizma. Roman „Stranac“, kao i esej „Mit o Sizifu“, pripada Camusjevoj fazi apsurda, u kojoj svijest o apsurdu kod Camusjevih likova ne izaziva tjeskobu, nego oni prihvaćaju apsurd.

Roman je podijeljen na dva dijela, može se odrediti kao moderni, filozofski, egzistencijalni i kao roman lika. Stil je jednostavan i objektivan, a u pripovijedanju prevladava postupak redukcije. Svi događaji u romanu izneseni su u 1. licu, kao ispovijest glavnoga lika Mersaulta, koji u tamnici u Alžiru pripovijeda o prošlim...
