where

a: a (—)
b: b (—)
V: Uniform variance (—)

Lecture brief

Historical brief

Bernoulli trials, Poisson, Gauss, Bayes and Shannon entropy turned chance into a calculus of belief and noise. The lab computes likelihood, interval and information in SI-free counts. This sheet (PRB-23 — Uniform variance) is the form associated with Uniform variance. Working symbols: $a$ , $b$ $\rightarrow$ $V$ . Continuous uniform. Pedagogical SI sheet with a live model and a swept parameter.

Purpose

Purpose: compute

V

from

a

b

in Probability & statistics via

Var=(b-a)^2/12

Continuous uniform. Use it when a real probability & statistics question must be answered in SI before a code check.

Live realistic example

In symbols

Live case. Given

a = 0.000\,\mathrm{—}

b = 6.000\,\mathrm{—}

, the governing relation

Var=(b-a)^2/12

yields

V = 3.000\,\mathrm{—}

. One governing identity, SI units, a single sweep on the sheet. Move a slider: the numbers are this situation, not a canned story.
