Think Bayes 2 is the companion repository for the second edition of Allen B. Downey’s introduction to Bayesian statistics. It teaches Bayesian reasoning through computational methods instead of relying mainly on symbolic mathematics. Each chapter is presented as a Jupyter notebook where readers can study the text, run examples, and complete exercises.

...It likely includes definitions of random variables, PMFs and PDFs, expectations, variance, common distributions (e.g. binomial, normal, Poisson, exponential), conditional probability, Bayes’ theorem, moment generating functions, and perhaps important inequalities (Markov, Chebyshev, Chernoff). The cheat sheet is intended as a quick reference for students, data scientists, statisticians, or anyone needing to recall core probability formulas without diving into textbooks. It may include visual diagrams (e.g. distributions’ shapes), tips or mnemonic notes, and examples of application (e.g. computing probabilities or expectations). ...
