Abstract

In this note we cover some examples of computer-aided illustration of the concepts of probability, conditional probability, probability distribution and expected value for high school students. We utilize relatively big true random or pseudorandom datasets available on the internet or generated locally in order to be able to make use of the law of large numbers. Apropos of an example we briefly investigate Bernstein like polynomials derived from the hypergeometric rather than from the binomial distribution.
