Learn about the motivation, features, and the creator behind the Random Variables & Probability Distributions calculator.
The Random Variables & Probability Distributions calculator is a comprehensive web-based tool designed to help students, educators, and professionals solve probability problems quickly and accurately. This project aims to make probability theory more accessible by providing interactive calculators, visualizations, and educational resources.
Probability theory and statistics can be challenging subjects for many students. The abstract concepts, complex formulas, and diverse distributions often create barriers to understanding. This project was created to address these challenges by providing:
Interactive tools for calculating probabilities across various distributions with step-by-step solutions.
Dynamic graphs that illustrate probability mass/density functions and cumulative distribution functions.
Concise theory sections that explain key concepts, formulas, and applications.
Tools to generate and visualize random samples from various probability distributions.
This project was built using modern web technologies to ensure accessibility, performance, and a great user experience:
Additional libraries used include Chart.js for visualizations, MathJax for mathematical notation, jStat for statistical calculations, and Particles.js for background animations.
This project is continuously evolving. Future updates plan to include:
Creator & Developer
Hello! I'm Janith Deshan, a passionate developer with a strong interest in mathematics, statistics, and educational technology. I created this probability calculator to help students better understand complex probability concepts through interactive tools and visualizations.
My goal was to build a resource that I wish I had when I was first learning probability theory - something that makes abstract concepts concrete and provides immediate feedback on calculations.
I'm always looking to improve this project. If you have suggestions, found a bug, or want to request a new feature, please reach out through the contact page or directly via email.
