StatsWithJuliaBook is the companion code repository for the book Statistics with Julia: Fundamentals for Data Science, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. It contains over 200 code blocks that correspond to the book’s ten chapters and three appendices, covering topics from probability theory and data summarization to regression analysis, hypothesis testing, and machine learning basics. The repository is designed for Julia users and provides ready-to-run examples that reinforce theoretical concepts with practical implementation. Readers can explore how Julia supports statistical modeling, simulation, and computational methods in data science workflows. ...

...Instead of heavy focus on continuous mathematics or calculus, the book emphasizes learning Bayesian inference by writing Python programs. The project includes code examples, scripts, and environments that correspond to the chapters of the book. Learners can run the code, experiment with probability distributions, compute posterior probabilities, and understand Bayesian updating via simulation and algorithmic methods. The book and code encourage thinking in terms of discrete approximations (sums over distributions) rather than continuous integrals, making it more accessible to many programmers. Over time, the repository has been updated (including a second edition version) to reflect improved practices, corrections, and modern Python tooling.
