500 _aPresents the theory of probability and statistics. Several real-life examples are presented to illustrate both theoretical principles and practical applications. The text attains a balance between mathematical rigour and a descriptive style by using set-theoretic tools and contains detailed chapters on `theory of errors`, theory of estimation, elements of statistics, sampling distributions, tests of hypotheses, curve fitting and correlation, algebra of sets, beta and gamma functions, probability theory, random variables and probability distributions, mathematical expectation, discrete and continuous distributions and generating functions with emphasis on characteristic functions and limit theorems.
