What they share#
Every topic here is a record-transform, so once you have
called one the rest follow the same shape. Import paths differ only in the final segment:
import { pmfPdfCdfSurvivalAndQuantileFunctions } from "fintech-algorithms/financial-mathematics-statistics-and-data-foundations/probability-distributions-and-simulation-basics/pmf-pdf-cdf-survival-and-quantile-functions";
import { bernoulliAndBinomialDistributions } from "fintech-algorithms/financial-mathematics-statistics-and-data-foundations/probability-distributions-and-simulation-basics/bernoulli-and-binomial-distributions";Read them in the order above — the sequence is pedagogical, not alphabetical.
Where this sits#
Financial Mathematics, Statistics, and Data Foundations collects 120 algorithms across 12 families. For the concept behind this family rather than the call signatures, see the concept guides.
