Think Bayes

ThinkBayes is the code repository accompanying Think Bayes: a book on Bayesian statistics written in a computational style. 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.
