Conditional probability

🎯 What is conditional probability, really?

📊 Understand it (finally) with interactive animations

Learning probability can be confusing… until you see this resource:

With simple, animated visual examples, this tutorial answers questions like:

  • What does P(A|B) mean?
  • Why is it different from P(B|A)?
  • What do the colored circles have to do with medical tests, diagnostics, and decision-making under uncertainty?
  • And why does our intuition often fail when estimating probabilities?

💡 Ideal for:

  • Statistics or data science students.
  • Data professionals who want to reinforce fundamental concepts.

🔍 An educational gem: explains Bayes, independence, and evidence with moving images, without heavy equations or unnecessary jargon.

📦 A solid grasp of conditional probability is key for:

  • Bayesian models
  • Machine learning
  • Statistical inference
  • Evidence-based decision making
